USC Football Recruiting: 4-Star ATH Warren Thompson Names Top 10

Four-star athlete Warren Thompson announced his Top 10 schools for 2018 on Twitter Monday, with USC football making the cut.

USC football continues to recruit the state of Florida hard this cycle, earning a place on yet another favorites list for a prospect from the Sunshine State on Monday night.

Warren Thompson, a 2018 recruit out of Armwood High School in Seffner, Florida, named the the Trojans among his Top 10.

“Very thankful blessed and honored to be in this position,” Thompson wrote on Twitter. “These are the schools that I will be sticking with throughout my process.”

Along with USC, Thompson listed Florida State, Miami, Florida, USF, Louisville, Georgia, Penn State, Mississippi State and Tennessee.

At 6-foot-4, 185 pounds, Thompson has played quarterback and wide receiver in high school, but projects at the latter position for the college game. He is rated as the No. 9 athlete in the class of 2018 and the No. 29 player in the state of Florida, according to the 247 Sports composite.

Nationally, he ranks No. 141 in the class.
