Xavier Legette
3 star WR Xavier Legette 6'3" 190lbs of Mullins has been wanting to commit to USC since receiving an offer from Will Muschamp but because of numbers in the class, Muschamp wanted Legette to wait until August to enroll so that he would count against the 2020 class. All that changed Thursday night when Muschamp called with an early Christmas present for Legette…an opportunity to sign now and enroll this summer. Legette said yes.
“Coach Muschamp called me yesterday (Thursday) and when he first got on the phone he asked me was I ready to be a Gamecock,” Legette said. “He didn’t tell me they had made a way for me to become a Gamecock, he just asked me. And then he started breaking everything down to me and telling me how they had made a way.”
Legette also had offers from Colorado State, Tennessee, East Carolina, Tulane and Coastal Carolina. But USC was always where he wanted to be and given the chance to join the program now, he didn’t hesitate giving his commitment to Muschamp Thursday night and getting his signed LOI in on Friday.
“It’s the best place for me,” he said “It’s very close to where I’m from, Mullins, and my family will get to see me more often than they would if I were to go anywhere else.”
Legette played quarterback this season for the Auctioneers rushing for 1826 yards and 19 touchdowns and passing for 887 yards and 14 touchdowns. He gives USC 19 new signees for the class and three at the receiver positions.
