Oregon added one more signee to its 2023 recruiting class Wednesday, giving the Ducks 30 scholarship high school and junior college players and 10 transfers in their class.
UO’s class of high school signees ranks No. 8 by 247Sports, On3 and Rivals.
Here’s a roundup of what was written nationally about Oregon’s crop of incoming talent:
“While the Ducks believed there was a good chance they would land Harbor, South Carolina had always been a dark horse and it wasn’t until recently that Oregon made a surge. The same could have been said for four-star cornerback Rodrick Pleasant, with USC long thought to be the favorite. Oregon, however, was able to pluck him out of Southern California -- just like they did Matayo Uiagalelei in December -- and grabbed a player from a school (Gardena Serra) that has long been good to the Trojans.” (CBSSports.com)
“The Ducks were hoping to (land) Harbor after getting his final official visit, but after he committed to South Carolina, Oregon did land four-star Rodrick Pleasant, pushing the class to No. 8 overall.” (247Sports)
“The addition of Rodrick Pleasant on National Signing Day sealed the deal for Oregon’s class as the tops in the conference.” (247Sports)
“The fact that Oregon coach Dan Lanning and his staff went into Gardena (Calif.) Serra and pulled Rodrick Pleasant away from USC was one of the bigger recruiting coups this recruiting cycle.” (Rivals)
