Frisco Lone Star QB Trey Wright Commits to USC

Frisco Lone Star quarterback Trey Wright has committed to USC's 2028 class after coach Lincoln Riley offered him in early August. Wright has accounted for 58 total touchdowns this season, including 42 passing and 16 rushing, and the team is 10-0.

Why it matters

USC identified a signal-caller who fits Riley's offense and has drawn comparisons to Kyler Murray. Wright is the only commit in USC's 2028 class so far.

Wright threw seven passing touchdowns in a single early-October game, breaking his school record, and stands 5-foot-11. He has one interception this season across 58 total touchdowns, a ratio that underpins his billing as a top-tier prospect.

The players

Trey Wright

A Frisco Lone Star quarterback and USC 2028 commit who is 5-foot-11 and has been rated a four-star prospect.

Lincoln Riley

The USC head football coach who offered Wright and built his offense around recruiting quarterbacks with dual-threat ability.

The details

Riley offered Wright in early August, and Wright announced his commitment a week later, making him the only commit in USC's 2028 class. Riley and his staff pursued Wright over highly touted local quarterbacks and five-star prospects, and Wright was rated three-star in August before later being elevated to four-star.

2025: Wright posted 5,826 total yards and 59 total touchdowns as a sophomore.
Early August 2026: Riley offered Wright, and he committed a week later.
Early October 2026: Wright threw seven passing touchdowns, breaking his school record.
Thursday before November 7, 2026: Wright scored a highlight touchdown run in a blowout win over McKinney North.

Roadmap

The commitment follows Riley's established pattern of recruiting dual-threat quarterbacks, with Wright drawing comparisons to Kyler Murray from Riley's Oklahoma offense. It positions USC to build its 2028 class around a signal-caller whose production has been measured in total touchdowns rather than passing alone.

Wright's 58 total touchdowns and 42 passing scores make him a notable name for fantasy and recruiting followers tracking Texas high school quarterbacks. His commitment removes him from the open market, so high school and college watchers can now track his development inside USC's program.

The takeaway

Wright's pledge shows how a single high-volume high school quarterback can anchor an entire recruiting class early. Readers following Texas prep football can watch whether his touchdown production translates to the college level.
