USC Trojans in Danger of Losing Four-Star Recruit Shamar Arnoux, Flip to Miami?
The USC Trojans and coach Lincoln Riley are recruiting at a high level despite having a 4-4 in their first year in the Big Ten. Four-star defensive back recruit Shamar Arnoux committed to USC in the Summer, but he recently visited Miami for a game.
USC Trojans defensive back commit Shamar Arnoux recently visited Miami for the Hurricanes’ game against Florida State. The USC recruit plays his high school football at Carrollton High School in Georgia with five-star quarterback and with fellow Trojans commit Julian Lewis.
Arnoux is the No. 374 prospect in the country, and Lewis is ranked No. 31 overall, according to the 247Sports Composite
National Signing Day is approaching, so programs from around the country are trying to flip committed recruits, and the Trojans are not immune. While the USC Trojans might not be having the on-field success that fans were expecting, coach Lincoln Riley and his staff are still recruiting at a high level.
The early signing period begins on Dec. 4. With only a few months away, the heat has been turned up on a number of USC recruits, especially the ones with major college football programs in their backyards.
On Sept. 25, Arnoux posted to social media that Miami and coach Mario Cristobal offered him a scholarship. Soon after, Arnoux attended Miami’s game against the Florida State Seminoles on Saturday. After the trip, the four-star recruit spoke with On3’s Steve Wiltfong.
“I enjoyed the Miami trip,” Arnoux said to Wiltfong. “I got to spend some time and get to know the coaching staff. From what I noticed Coach Cristobal is definitely a players’ coach and coach (Chevis) Jackson is is no B.S. teacher of the game. He played at the highest level the NFL and tries to teach techniques that will translate to the league.”
Miami took care of business against the Seminoles, winning 36-14. Cristobal has the Hurricanes 8-0, and they are expected to compete in both the ACC Championship and College Football Playoff.
Arnoux committed to USC in June, but it seems as though the Miami coaching staff is doing everything they can to flip the Georgia prospect. In addition to Miami, the Auburn Tigers are reportedly in contact with Arnoux.
