Jayden Maiava Flips Commitment to USC from Georgia

Former UNLV Quarterback to Compete for Starting Position at USC Following Departure of Caleb Williams

  • Former UNLV quarterback Jayden Maiava has flipped his transfer commitment from the University of Georgia to the University of Southern California (USC) less than 24 hours after committing to Georgia.
  • Maiava, who threw for 3,085 yards and 17 touchdowns as a redshirt freshman this season, will compete with Miller Moss for the Trojans starting QB job.
  • The pair will have some big shoes to fill as the Trojans’ last QB, Caleb Williams, is widely considered to be the favorite for first overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft.
  • Both USC and Georgia were really hoping to land the four-star transfer after both programs lost five-star QBs to the transfer pool.
  • Maiava's decision came after a final pitch from Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley.
