It will also perhaps be as surprising to see USC hold onto all these DE guys for the duration: Lewis is a JUCO and will have 3 to play 2. 4* Dante Sawyer will also be a JUCO with 3 to play 2, so that will help. But USC already has high expectations for in-house DE Darrius English who will get his first chance to start this year in 2014 - he'll be a RS-So. this year, and another Jr. in 2015. USC is also bringing in high 4* DE prospects Shamiek Blackshear and Arden Key for the '15 cycle.
They also expect to bring back 4* DE/DL Dexter Wideman, who was part of the '14 class but failed to qualify: all reports feel he's headed to prep school and will then be a part of the 2015 class. Wideman has the frame and size to develop into a DT eventually, but he has tried to be insistent that he wants to play DE, so we'll see how that develops.
That's an awful lot of top DE talent all at once...
