Duke landed one of the top recruits in program history earlier this season with a commitment from 4-star quarterback Jack Sears. However, the talented 2017 QB recently announced that he decided to de-commit from Duke and will stay in his home state to join USC next year.
Jack Sears was expected to be a program-changing recruit for the Blue Devils, ranked as one of the top quarterbacks in the 2017 recruiting class. Unfortunately after committing to Duke in August Sears took his official visit for the Army game, where he admits he started having second thoughts about Duke and the Blue Devils won but the game took place in the middle of a hurricane.
