USC football’s recruiting efforts kept rolling on Monday with yet another commitment, the third in four days as Punahou High School linebacker Maninoa joined in the recruiting parade.
Maninoa announced his commitment to the Trojans via a video on Twitter, picking the cardinal and gold over UCLA, Texas, Washington and LSU.
A 6-foot-3, 225-pound linebacker prospect, Maninoa ranks 151st among all players in the class of 2019, per the 247Sports composite. He is the sixth-best inside linebacker on the board and the third-best player coming out of Hawaii.
As a junior in 2017, he had 88 tackles, 17 tackles for loss and three forced fumbles.
