Oregon’s 2027 recruiting class is piling up commitments, and five-star edge rusher Rashad Streets is already acting like one of the faces of the group.
Streets, who committed to Dan Lanning and the Ducks in April, has been one of Oregon’s most visible pledges on social media. That’s mattered even more over the past few days as the Ducks have added three top-70 recruits in five days, including another five-star in receiver Xavier Sabb.
After Sabb chose Oregon over LSU, Tennessee and UCLA, Streets posted a simple message that said plenty: “FEBU”.
That phrase fits neatly into the culture Lanning has been building in Eugene. His “DNA” centers on four traits: connection, growth, toughness and sacrifice.
Ducks players and recruits also use “FEBU,” short for “forget everyone but us,” a slogan that matches the program’s “us vs. us” mindset. It’s the same kind of outside-noise rejection that has long been part of the Nick Saban coaching tree, and it’s clear Streets has already bought in.
Streets is helping carry that message, too. Another Oregon commit, four-star defensive lineman Zane Rowe, echoed the same sentiment with his own post: “#FEBU #SCODUCKS 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆 https://t.co/UHzVZVPLgo”
The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Streets plays at Millbrook High School in Raleigh, North Carolina, and picked Oregon over Alabama, NC State, Ohio State, Florida State and South Carolina. He was bumped up to five-star status in June when 247 Sports updated its rankings.
Oregon’s recent run didn’t stop with Sabb. On July 1, the Ducks also landed four-star defensive back Hayden Stepp and four-star athlete Tae Walden Jr., giving the class another major boost.
Streets has been doing more than celebrating. He’s also been working to recruit others to Eugene, including fellow five-star Ismael Camara, who ultimately announced for Texas. He’s not the only Oregon commit pushing the message either, as four-star quarterback Will Mencl has also been outspoken about the wide receivers he wants to line up with in Eugene.
Sabb explained his own decision on the Rivals YouTube channel, saying, “I feel like that was the best fit for me and my family. Also, I feel like that's the best chance I can get to win a national championship,” Sabb said.
With the three July additions, Oregon’s 2027 class now sits at No. 3 nationally and No. 1 in the Big Ten, according to 247Sports.
There are still more names on the board. Three-star defensive back Kamauri Whitfield is set to announce on July 6, four-star linebacker Brayton Feister will decide on July 11, and the Ducks are considered to be in strong position for Feister. Four-star defensive lineman Brayden Parks also remains uncommitted with no public decision date.
Fans won’t see Streets in a Ducks uniform for a while, but Oregon’s football calendar is moving fast. Big Ten Media Days are set for July 28-30 in Chicago, fall camp follows, and the season opens Saturday, Sept. 5 against Boise State at Autzen Stadium in Eugene.

A trio of former Oregon mens basketball players is getting another crack at the pro game this summer, with Nate Bittle, TJ Bamba and Brandon Angel all set for NBA Summer League action in 2026. For Ducks fans, it is a reminder that the programs recent roster churn still has players hanging around the leagues edges, where one strong showing can change a lot in a hurry.

Summer League is often a brief window, but for players trying to turn college success into a lasting NBA foothold, it is exactly the kind of stage that matters most. [Read more 🡒]
One Oregon Freshman Is Already Drawing Serious Big Ten Buzz
Oregons 2026 recruiting haul already has the Ducks sitting near the top of the national conversation, and the class is loaded with headline names like five-star safety Jett Washington, five-star edge rusher Anthony Jones and four-star offensive lineman Tommy Tofi. But among the arrivals, freshman tight end Kendre Harrison is the one drawing extra attention because of what he brings to a spot that suddenly looks much thinner than it did a year ago.
Harrison arrives with a strong recruiting rsum and a reputation as a rare athlete, which is why CBS Sports singled him out as a freshman to watch in the Big Ten. Oregon has a path for him to get on the field early if he can separate himself in a room that now leans heavily on Jamari Johnson, and the Ducks could use that kind of immediate help as they sort out the next layer of their offense.

Dan Lanning's Biggest Oregon Recruiting Win Still Sparks One Huge Debate
Dan Lanning has turned recruiting into one of Oregons clearest calling cards, and the Ducks keep stacking the kind of commitments that change how a class looks on paper and how it might look on Saturdays down the road. Recent additions such as Xavier Sabb, Hayden Stepp and Tae Walden Jr. have only reinforced that momentum, giving Oregon another wave of blue-chip talent and keeping the program near the top of the national conversation.
Still, the biggest wins in Eugene tend to come with a familiar debate attached: which pledge mattered most, and which one will end up shaping the roster first? The Ducks have had days that felt like turning points, from the kind of receiver commitment that can set the tone for an entire position group to the offensive line headliner fans already expect to compete quickly, and every new haul seems to revive the same question about how much of this recruiting surge is about star power now versus the payoff later.
