USC and Colorado lose again, are we closer to seeing Julian Lewis to Indiana?

The Indiana Unive­rsity football team and head coach Curt Cignetti are bringing a ton of fresh and new exciting eyes to the Hoosiers program and it starts with the players of the field as he is brining in a talented recruiting class for 2025 and beyond.

The 2025 class is currently in the top 50 but they question everyone wants to know is will five-star elite quarterback Julian "JUJU" Lewis land with the Hoosiers if 3-3 USC fires Lincoln Riley?

I believe yes, there is still a chance with the uncertainty of Riley at USC and Coach Prime at Colorado going forward IU still has a "punchers" chance to potentially landing Lewis.

“As of right now, I’m still locked in with USC. That’s still where my home is. Taking visits is kind of a part of the process, I was going to go see what’s going on everywhere else, but I’m still USC right now,” Lewis said.

Down below is what 247Sports has to say about the talented signal caller fro Carrollton:

"A de facto point guard on the gridiron that can distribute the football like few others. Won’t blow many away with his build, but makes up for his subpar measurables with his ability to scan the field and manipulate defenses with his eyes. Compact release allows him to rip tight, accurate spirals to all different levels. Might not have a true cannon, but will drop balls over coverage well into the deeper third. Has proven to be a crafty mover both in and outside of the pocket and will extend plays like a true escape artist. Elected to forgo his senior season after reclassifying and moving up a year, but has already shown that he’s well ahead of the curve, posting a 25-3 record in two seasons while competing in the Peach State’s highest classification. Size might be a sticking point for some, but rare intangibles make him one of the top passers in the 2025 cycle as he constantly finds ways to move the chains. Tailor made for a modern spread attack that wants to push the pace and constantly challenge defenses."

The­ 2025 high school recruits look promising for IU football. We have a good mix of offe­nse and defense­ players. With these re­cruits, we can build a strong team for the coming ye­ars. If Lewis joins us, it could take our team to a ne­w level in the Big Te­n. As recruiting goes on, fans and expe­rts will watch closely to see how this class shape­s IU football's future.

IU announced it will be the program's first sell out since the 2021 season. The Hoosiers will also welcome Fox's Big Noon Kickoff — the network's weekly pre-game show featuring the likes of Matt Leinart, Brady Quinn, Mark Ingram and Urban Meyer — to Bloomington on Saturday.
