Now that signing day is nearly upon us, let’s look ahead to the 2010 recruiting class. There are plenty of talented juniors across Southern California and many of them figure to be prime recruiting bait over the next year.

Of course, the recruiting tug of war between USC Coach Pete Carroll and UCLA Coach Rick Neuheisel will intensify in the months ahead. Carroll has already lost at least one commitment to the Bruins and I’m sure Neuheisel is hoping to fulfill the promise of UCLA’s monopoly-toppling marketing strategy.

USC and UCLA have already expressed interest in many of SoCal’s top juniors. Who do you think should be their top priority? Feel free to use the comment board if you think someone who’s not on our poll should be on top of the Carroll-Neuheisel wish list.
