Biography
Korey Foreman (born November 8, 2002) is an American football defensive end who will play for the Fresno State Bulldogs. He previously played for the USC Trojans.
High school career
Foreman attended Centennial High School in Corona, California. As a senior, Foreman was named to the All-American bowl although the game was not held due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A consensus top 5 prospect, USA Today ranked him the #1 recruit in the country for the class of 2021.He originally committed to play college football at Clemson, before de-committing in order to take more college visits, as Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney has a policy that players committed to Clemson cannot take additional visits. On January 2, 2021, he committed to the University of Southern California over Clemson, Georgia, Arizona State and LSU, citing the school's proximity to his hometown, and the NIL opportunities that playing in Los Angeles would provide to him as key factors to his decision. Foreman's father has stated that Foreman held a makeshift raffle in order to decide where to attend college, drawing a ball with USC's logo out of a hat.
