Top-100 athlete gets USC football offer

Brandon Arrington, who can play wide receiver and perform on special teams, has received an offer from USC football. Arrington is ranked as the No. 15 athlete in the nation, checking in at the No. 128 slot overall. Last season, Arrington posted 14 receptions for 426 yards and six touchdowns on offense, then he added 18 solo tackles and seven pass deflections from the secondary.

On3 Sports provided this brief note on Arrington, with quotes from the man himself:

Brandon Arrington only needs two words to explain why football coaches love him. “My speed,” he said. “I feel like my track times benefit me for getting these big offers because colleges love speed.” Arrington claimed the 150-meter title and finished fourth in the 60-meter dash as a freshman at the California Winter Outdoor Championships. After playing his first two seasons at Helix, Arrington transferred to Mount Miguel ahead of his junior season. While at Helix, he caught six touchdown passes over two seasons and added a 65-yard punt return for a score as a sophomore.
