Last weekend (June 7-9) the Douglas family took an Official Visit to Columbia. During his visit, Preston “fell in love” with all things USC. When asked about what led to his commitment, Douglas shared with me:
“I absolutely love the coaches and staff.” Preston stated. “They really believe in me and made me feel like part of the family. After being on my OV, it solidified my commitment. Big things coming in the future. Go Cocks!”

Offensively, Preston is joined by 4-Star WR Brian Rowe, 3-Star Jayden Sellers and 3-Star RB Jaquel Holman. Douglas’ 6 foot 3, 225 pound frame will be an elite, physical addition to a loaded ‘Cocks offense.
