Oregon Adds To Consensus Top 10 Class
02/05/19 | Football
EUGENE, Ore. -- Oregon added three players on Wednesday to the 22 it signed during the December period to complete its 2019 recruiting class. The Ducks' recruiting class is the highest-ranked class in school history, finishing No. 6 in the ESPN rankings and No. 7 in both the Rivals and 247Sports Composite rankings.
"For us, we feel it's a home run, so we are excited," head coach Mario Cristobal said. "The power of the brand is strong. All in all, a tremendous day for us. We had a chance to elevate the caliber of athlete on our roster, and we did so."
In the last two recruiting classes, Oregon has signed the No. 1 ranked player in six different states (seven total). In the 2019 recruiting class, the Ducks added the top players in the states of Oregon (Patrick Herbert -- 247Sports), California (Kayvon Thibodeaux -- ESPN) and Tennessee (Lance Wilhoite -- ESPN). In the 2018 class, Oregon signed the top players from Colorado (Adrian Jackson -- ESPN, Rivals, 247Sports), Oregon (Dawson Jaramillo -- ESPN), Utah (Penei Sewell -- ESPN, Rivals, 247Sports) and Arizona (Tyler Shough -- Rivals, 247Sports).
In the 2019 recruiting class, Oregon signed players from 10 different states. California led the way with a dozen players, while Alabama, Florida, Hawaii and Tennessee all contributed multiple Ducks.

Cristobal says: "A 6-foot cover-corner; we all know how hard it is to get those guys. And we live in a conference where the passing game, for a lot of teams, does reign supreme. With the long, rangy wide receivers that we have in this conference, with some of the more prolific passing games and offenses we have to face ... we find ourselves with a guy with elite twitch, elite hips and feet that can turn and cover and stay with some of the more elite, longer wide receiver types."
