The battle for Julian Lewis, Carrollton High School’s golden arm, has been a rollercoaster ride. Initially, he pledged his allegiance to the USC Trojans. But like a fickle football fan, he’s been eyeing other schools, including the Colorado Buffs, Indiana Hoosiers, and Auburn Tigers. And now, even the mighty Alabama Crimson Tide have entered the fray. However, whispers from an insider suggest that Lewis’s initial enthusiasm for the Trojans might be waning. Is he having second thoughts?
In line with the idea, there has been an update on Julian Lewis’ level of dedication, shared by a family member. On November 3rd, a USCJ LOST IN THA SAUCE PODCAST insider revealed a cryptic update on Lewis’s pledge status for the class of 2025, saying, “I got a text from a family member from Juju Lewis yesterday and said, “I’m going to follow up with you. It’s not looking good.” Knowing the fact that Deion Sanders and Buffs have their eyes on Julian, this kind of message doesn’t look like a good sign for the Trojans.

Lincoln Riley’s USC Trojans are not coming off quite promising this season. The team is currently standing on a four-win and five-loss streak after their recent blowout of 21-26 against the Washington Huskies this Saturday. And the most concerning part of the game was USC’s poor offense and their bickering pass attempts. Even head coach Lincoln Riley addressed it, saying, “I mean, we did try; we didn’t run it great; we needed to do better.” This doesn’t seem like a college football team someone would want, does it?
Well, the same concern was highlighted earlier by the ROC boys in their recent podcast, where they discussed the Trojans’ poor gameplay and its negative impact on their recruiting efforts. Amidst that, they also added, “You don’t want to just be going in 2025 with a true freshman quarterback in Juju Lewis, so I think you need that answer as well.” So it’s clear that USC can’t solely rely on a freshman, and their continued struggles might push Lewis towards a program like Colorado, which is actively improving.
Can the Buffs snatch Julian Lewis’ commitment?

What’s your perspective on:
Is Julian Lewis about to shock the Trojans by flipping his commitment to the Buffs?
Have an interesting take?
The 17-year-old QB recently visited Colorado University for their game against the Cincinnati Bearcats. After this, there were speculations that Julian Lewis might be interested in the program and is looking for a possible switch. Even the star quarterback seemed quite satisfied with his visit, as after the game he said, “It was a cool weekend. I met a lot of good people.” Well, for now, there is no official confirmation, but let’s see with time whether this information gets any meaning or not!
But considering the fact that next year Buffs star quarterback Shedeur Sanders will be getting into the NFL draft, Lewis might have an opportunity to fill in his place. Not only that, he may start as a starting quarterback, which will only enhance his career and gameplay. But with USC, things might be different. Their recent struggles could scare JuJu away. And this race for him is getting really intense.
