Regardless of how it came to be, Marshall’s decision is the perfect ending to a perfect day for USC on the recruiting trail.

W/ Iman Marshall, how historic is #USC's haul? Since 2002, only five other classes had at least 12 Scout top-100 prospects like USC now has.

So... USC can line up Adoree Jackson, Su'a Cravens, Leon McQuay, and Iman Marshall in the secondary next year. That's 20 stars of guys.

Steve Sarkisian and his staff absolutely crushed this recruiting class. By any measure it is one of the best of all-time. #USC

IMO Iman Marshall is the No. 1 player in the country. He's that good. HUGE get for #USC

Cordell Broadus has ESPN show. Iman Marshall has music video. The UCLA vs. USC rivalry is in full bloom.

No. 1 CB Iman Marshall (4 in #ESPN300): USC; Trojans get 3 who are No. 1 at their position (also RB Ronald Jones II, ILB John Houston Jr.)

So is Iman Marshall's music video on Bleacher Report also his application for the #USC School of Cinematic Arts?
