Four-star cornerback Rodrick Pleasant of Gardena (CA) Junipero Serra High announced his commitment to Oregon Wednesday afternoon.

The 5-foot-10, 170 pounder chose the Ducks over USC, UCLA, and others.

The two-sport standout joins coach Lanning and the Ducks’ Top 10 class in the 2023 team rankings.

Rodrick Pleasant Scouting Summary

“Versatile speedster who has a claim as the fastest prospect in the 2023 cycle. Set the California state record with a historic 10.14 second mark in the 100 meters in the state finals as a junior. Also ran an outstanding 20.40 second time in the 200 meters. One of the fastest prep sprinters in the nation. Has a smaller frame at 5-foot-10 and around 170 pounds. Plays all over the field at Gardena Serra, but most likely projects as a cornerback long-term. Has the speed to stick in the hip pocket of wide receivers on Friday nights. Also shows excellent makeup speed when out of phase in the camp setting. A willing tackler as a run defender. A threat to score anytime the ball is in his hands as a receiver or kick returner. Lacks some length for the position with a neutral wing-span and will need to show he can make plays on the ball in contested situations.”

Pleasant ranks as the No. 98 player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that accounts for all four major recruiting sites. He also tabs in as the No. 9 cornerback and the No. 7 player in the state of California.
