Having done a blog or two about Shaquelle Evans in the past, I can say with some certainty that the receiver from Inglewood is one of the most sought-after Class of 2009 football prospects in the nation. Everyone is courting this kid. No joke.

You can count USC as one of the more interested parties . And it appears the feeling is mutual after reading these quotes. While Evans hasn’t officially announced a favorite among his suitors, the Trojans should be considered just that.

USC, along with NCAA Division I powerhouses such as LSU, Notre Dame and Oklahoma, is one of 12 programs offering Evans scholarships. Word is the 6-foot-1, 190 pound junior plans on making a decision sometime in September. Stay tuned.
