Four-star edge rusher Rashad Streets, ranked as the No. 9 prospect at his position in the 2027 class, has committed to the University of Oregon. Streets, a 6-foot-4, 230-pound prospect from Raleigh, North Carolina, chose the Ducks over offers from Alabama, Ohio State, and NC State.
Why it matters
Streets' commitment to Oregon represents a significant recruiting win for the Ducks, as they were able to beat out traditional powerhouses Alabama and Ohio State for the highly touted pass rusher. This continues Oregon's recent surge in attracting elite defensive talent from outside the Pacific Northwest, solidifying their status as a national recruiting force.
The details
Streets announced his decision live on the Pat McAfee Show, saying "Best isn't convenient, SCO DUCKS." The North Carolina native held offers from nearly every major program before narrowing his focus to his final four schools. Oregon's ability to land Streets, a top-10 edge rusher, marks a notable shift in the typical recruiting pipeline for elite talent from the Atlantic Coast region.
