USC sophomore cornerback Domani Jackson is entering the transfer portal, per 247Sports’ Matt Zenitz.
The former five-star recruit out of Santa Anna, Calif., was rated as the No. 2 cornerback, No. 1 player in the state of California and the No. 15 prospect overall in the 2022 class.
The news comes a day after Georgia hired USC assistant Donte Williams to fill the void at defensive backs coach following the departure of Fran Brown to Syracuse.
Williams played an integral part in Jackson’s recruitment to USC and that relationship is something to watch moving forward. The Bulldogs could use a talent like Jackson with the departure of cornerbacks Nyland Green and A.J. Harris to the transfer portal.
Starting cornerback Kamari Lassiter is expected to enter the 2024 NFL draft to boot, leaving the Bulldogs with some major questions in the defensive backfield ahead of next season.
Transfer players have until Jan. 2 to find a new home. There’s also a window open during the spring (April 15-30).
