Crenshaw star DeAnthony Thomas wrote on his Facebook page earlier tonight that he was choosing USC. Mamba will join a talented class of early commits for the Trojans, including Mater Dei quarterback Max Wittek and wide receiver Victor Blackwell and Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas) defensive lineman Jalen Grimble.

I’ve left a message for him, and I’ll try to talk with him in the next couple days.

(UPDATE): Just talked briefly with Mamba, and he confirmed. We’re talking in depth tomorrow.
