The Oregon Ducks are red-hot and rolling on the recruiting trail.

Less than 48 hours after landing St. Frances Academy (Maryland) four-star quarterback Michael Van Buren and Durant (Oklahoma) four-star defensive lineman Xadavien Sims, Dan Lanning's program added another major piece.

On Monday morning, San Jacinto (California) four-star wide receiver Dillon Gresham announced his commitment to Oregon over fellow finalists Arizona and Washington, as well as offers from Colorado, Miami, USC and others. 

“There were a lot of reasons why I chose Oregon,” Gresham told 247Sports. “I had a great visit there a few months back and it just felt like home to me.

“I knew while I was on campus that Oregon was where I wanted to be. I loved everything about the school and how welcoming the staff was to me and my family. I had some great visits to other schools and really good options but Oregon was the best all around fit for me.”

As a junior, the 6-foot, 175-pound athlete was one of the nation's most productive pass-catchers, accumulating 90 receptions for 2,051 yards and 31 touchdowns. 

While Gresham certainly felt at home during his campus visits, he has also repeatedly discussed Oregon wide receiver coach Junior Adams as a key part of his connection to the Ducks.

He is not alone in sharing that sentiment. 

Gresham is the third bluechip wide receiver in Oregon's 2024 recruiting class, joining Newport Harbour (California) star Jordan Anderson and Roman Catholic (Pennsylvania) playmaker Tyseer Denmark.

Overall, Oregon's 2024 recruiting class is a consensus top-10 group nationally, rated as highly as No. 6
