The USC Trojan's crown jewel of their 2025 recruiting class, quarterback Julian Lewis, is redefining what recruitment looks like in the NIL era. 

Lewis has signed NIL deals with Alo Yoga, Cactus Jack, and Leaf Trading Cards. If his commitment with Trojans stick, he would become the second USC quarterback to have a deal with Alo after USC legend Caleb Williams.

"“Everybody wants that Jordan, Nike, all that stuff, that’s smooth. I think that’s every kid’s dream is getting a Nike deal," Lewis revealed in an interview with Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders' podcast, 2Legendary.

Lewis added that his non-clothing company dream NIL deal would be Lamborgini. The company is most well-known for their NIL deals with the University Of Texas.

“I’m not gonna lie, Texas had all that Lambo stuff going on. That junt was cool,” Lewis said. “Like, when they had that stuff. Stuff like that, that’s an eye-catcher for being a 16-year-old. You’re like, gonna go and get a Lambo. Stuff like that. That junt cool. I don’t really know.”

The No. 46 ranked prospect in the class of 2025 according to 247Sports, Lewis has been terrific so far this season as he's thrown for 1034 yards and 18 touchdowns this season already as he's led Carrollton to a 4-0 record so far.
