Signing Day festivities for USC will begin in earnest on Wednesday with the commitment announcement of four-star linebacker Solomon Tuliaupupu.
Tuliaupupu is the first scheduled announcement of the day, as part of ESPN’s Signing Day coverage. While he won’t make or break USC’s recruiting class, he could get the day off on either the right or wrong foot, picking between the Trojans and their two biggest rivals, UCLA and Notre Dame.
An elite prospect out of Mater Dei, Tuliaupupu ranks No. 3 among inside linebackers in the class of 2018. He is 10th-ranked player in the state of California and 86th in the country.
