He’s a playmaker on both sides at WR/DB with ability to stress defenses downfield and be a ballhawk in the secondary. He shows timing and anticipation jumping routes and playing QB eyes in the secondary. He’s a lockdown corner covering soft zone and press man and is a capable tackler in space. White committed to USC in September and holds over ten P-5 offers.</span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">After a great on campus visit to Orange 🍊 High by <a href="https://twitter.com/GeorgiaFootball?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@GeorgiaFootball</a> and new DB coach <a href="https://twitter.com/FranBrownUGA?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FranBrownUGA</a> im honored and blessed to say i have been re-offered by the National Champions <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/GoDawgs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#GoDawgs</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/coachDMetcalf?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@coachDMetcalf</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/prowaytraining?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@prowaytraining</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachWadu?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachWadu</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/FrampCamp?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FrampCamp</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachPedroza?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachPedroza</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Orangepantherf1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Orangepantherf1</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/JedMay_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@JedMay_</a> <a href="https://t.co/QZqFXh8DZg">pic.twitter.com/QZqFXh8DZg</a></p> — [player_tooltip player_id="149316" first="Jett" last="White"] (@G6Arron) <a href="https://twitter.com/G6Arron/status/1524087707751751681?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 10, 2022</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrAfter%20a%20great%20on%20campus%20visit%20to%20Orange%20🍊%20High%20by%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/GeorgiaFootball?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@GeorgiaFootball/a%20and%20new%20DB%20coach%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/FranBrownUGA?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@FranBrownUGA/a%20im%20honored%20and%20blessed%20to%20say%20i%20have%20been%20re-offered%20by%20the%20National%20Champions%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/hashtag/GoDawgs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw#GoDawgs/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/coachDMetcalf?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@coachDMetcalf/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/prowaytraining?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@prowaytraining/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CoachWadu?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CoachWadu/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/FrampCamp?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@FrampCamp/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CoachPedroza?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CoachPedroza/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/Orangepantherf1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@Orangepantherf1/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/JedMay_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@JedMay_/a%20a%20href=https://t.co/QZqFXh8DZgpic.twitter.com/QZqFXh8DZg/a/p—%20Jett%20White%20(@G6Arron)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/G6Arron/status/1524087707751751681?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwMay%2010,%202022/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>Ty Olsen- WR, Del Norte, 2025 </b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Olsen showed impressive physicality and playmaking ability posting 38 catches and 8 TDs in his freshman season. He’s an instinctive receiver that does a good job finding soft spots in zone and creating space with his route-running. He’s quick and intentional in his releases at the LOS and is a physical runner after the catch. He does well tracking the ball downfield and can make contested catches in traffic showing strong hands. Olsen is one of the more underrated 2025 receivers in San Diego heading into the fall. </span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Check out this highlight! <a href="https://t.co/xcUxNNyRyf">https://t.co/xcUxNNyRyf</a></p> Ty Olsen 2025 freshman on varsity 6,1 | 180 pounds | WR | Del Norte High School CA — ty olsen (@TyOlsen34) <a href="https://twitter.com/TyOlsen34/status/1462843301669654533?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 22, 2021</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrCheck%20out%20this%20highlight!%20a%20href=https://t.co/xcUxNNyRyfhttps://t.co/xcUxNNyRyf/abrbrTy%20Olsen%202025%20freshman%20on%20varsity%20br6,1%20|%20180%20pounds%20|%20WR%20|%20Del%20Norte%20High%20School%20CA/p—%20ty%20olsen%20(@TyOlsen34)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/TyOlsen34/status/1462843301669654533?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwNovember%2022,%202021/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="282683" first="Jacob" last="Alvarez"]- TE, Chaparral, 2025 </b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Alvarez was featured in PRZ’s 2025 Watchlist Breakdown as one of the top TEs in his class. Since then, he’s generated major recruiting momentum picking up his first offers from San Jose St., Ole Miss, Michigan St., and ASU this month. He’s a multi-dimensional athlete that can handle blocking responsibilities and possesses a solid WR skillset.

He has the size (6’1”/195) and skillset that could translate to both OLB and SS spots. Lavizzo picked up an offer from FAU last season and should continue to build off a strong freshman showing.</span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Thanks, <a href="https://twitter.com/ArizonaFBall?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@ArizonaFBall</a> for the hospitality.

He has active feet in the pocket and does a good job stepping up in the pocket with his eyes downfield. He shows mobility moving outside the pocket scrambling and improvising to pick up yards. He can put the ball in spots over the middle of the zone and shows accuracy on short-intermediate routes.
