Linebacker Raymond Scott (Harbor City, Calif./Narbonne) committed to USC as first-reported by 247Sports.

"I just off the phone with coach (Clay) Helton and coach (Tee) Martin and told them today was the day I wanted to commit," Scott said. "Today was the right day and I knew from the start I was going to be a Trojan."

Scott is ranked as the nation's No. 2 outside linebacker and the No. 4 prospect in California in the 2018 class by 247Sports and in his own words, adds just what you are looking for in a player at the position.

"USC will be getting a guy who can read opposing offenses and hit them hard," he said.

Scott is the third commit in the 2018 class for USC.
