USC offers 2026 Alabama-based four-star defensive lineman

The USC Trojans have offered Vodney Cleveland, a four-star offensive and defensive lineman from the 2026 class. This is a notable recruiting foray for a program which needs all the line-play additions it can get. Vodney Cleveland is a 6-foot-3, 305-pound, four-star lineman from Prattville, Alabama, where he plays for Prattville High School.

Cleveland had 19 tackles with a tackle for a loss in seven games as a sophomore in 2023.

Cleveland has offers from Arkansas, Auburn, Miami, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Texas, Tennessee, Texas A&M, UCF and Mississippi State among many others.

He is ranked as the the No. 12 DL, the No. 6 player in the state of Alabama, and the No. 107 player in the nation overall. He would bring a lot to the table for USC if he leaves the South and comes to Los Angeles.

There are no Crystal Ball projections at this time for Harris, but Auburn is a 64% favorite to land him per On3.
