Four-star linebacker Levi Jones, a national top-100 prospect, teased the fan bases at two schools before ultimately announcing he would sign with USC.

Jones, from Austin (Texas) Westlake, made his decision Wednesday morning at an announcement ceremony. He wore a jacket that he pulled off to reveal a Florida shirt. He then took that off to reveal a Florida State shirt. Finally, he took that off to reveal a shirt with his real choice – the Trojans.

He is the son of former Super Bowl-winning Dallas Cowboys linebacker Robert Jones. His father had played under Gators defensive coordinator Randy Shannon with the Dallas Cowboys, which was thought to give the Gators a potential edge.
