USC recruiting update: Midyear recruits start classes

A portion of USC’s 2015 recruiting class began classes Monday.

Five recruits who signed financial-aid agreements were on campus for the start of the spring semester: quarterback Ricky Town, linebacker Cameron Smith, receiver Isaac Whitney and offensive linemen Chuma Edoga and Roy Hemsley.

They will participate in winter conditioning and spring practice.

“First day as a Trojan! I’m lovin’ it,” Town wrote on Twitter.

USC has oral commitments from 16 players. The Trojans can sign 19 recruits on Feb. 4.
