Georgia Tech Transfer Target Tre'Quon Fegans Commits to USC
Georgia Tech had been hoping to land a commitment from Alabama cornerback transfer Tre'Quon Fegans, but he has opted to head out west instead.
Fegans announced today that he is going to be transferring to USC. It appeared that the Yellow Jackets were one of four finalists for Fegans, along with USC, Arizona, and UCF and Fegans is going to be playing for Lincoln Riley and the Trojans.
Fegans was a 6'1 180 LBS four-star cornerback on 247Sports in the 2022 class and was the 117th ranked player nationally. Fegans tweeted that he has heard from Miami, USC, UCF, Ohio State, Penn State, Arizona, UAB, and Troy.
When Zamari Walton transferred after the 2022 season, it meant there was going to be competition for that spot opposite of Myles Sims. Guys like Kenan Johnson and Kenyatta Watson are competing for that spot, but Fegans is super talented and would have made the Georgia Tech secondary a potentially dangerous unit along with safeties LaMiles Brooks, Jaylon King, and Clayton Powell-Lee.
Fegans was in town for a visit last weekend.
Georgia Tech has made one transfer portal addition in the second transfer window and that is Princeton offensive line transfer Connor Scaglione.
Here is the scouting report on Fegans coming out of high school courtesy of 247Sports director of scouting Andrew Ivins:
"Looks the part with long, lean frame. Measured over 6-foot-1 the summer before his senior season. A true playmaker at cornerback that uses his plus instincts to create takeaways. Rather experienced in press-man coverage and seems to be the most comfortable at this stage in his development when he can get his hands on a wide receiver near the line of scrimmage. Longer reach helps shrink throwing windows and makes him super competitive in jump-ball situations. Not afraid to make a face-up tackle and will get low when needed. Has doubled as a running back throughout much of his prep career and ripped off his fair share of big gains. Also dangerous in the return game, especially on punts. First made a name for himself as a sophomore when he returned five interceptions for touchdowns and helped his team win a state title playing in one of Alabama’s higher classifications. Followed that up with a strong junior campaign. Comes from a football family with four other brothers that play the game. Tested well as a youngster, but global pandemic has made it difficult to gather new verified data points. Top-end speed, however, doesn’t appear to be an issue given how he closes gaps on tape. Likely will need a year or two to find his bearings, but has what it takes to develop into a multi-year starter at the Power 5 level given impressive wingspan, fluidity and overall feel for the position. Length should eventually have him on the radar of NFL scouts."
