Oregon added one of the best defensive recruits available in the 2023 Recruitment Class as a four star Caleb Presley Committed to the Ducks streams live Tuesday on CBS Sports HQ. Presley, the No. 107 in the Top247 and No. 1 player in Washington State chose out Rainier Beach High School in Seattle, Oregon over Alabama, Michigan State and Texas A&M.
Listed at 6 feet tall and 180 pounds, Presley prides himself on pace and height to be an instant squad maker in the Power Five defense. Presley is ranked ninth on the list of potential players in the country, according to 247Sports.
“I chose Oregon because it was a perfect fit for me and my family” Presley told 247Sports. “It’s close enough to home, but far enough away from a distraction. I also believe in coach [Dan] Lanning and the rest of the defensive system.”
Presley’s decision is a huge victory for new coach Dan Lanning and the defensive culture he hopes to install in Eugene, Oregon. The Ducks have only 10 commitments in the recruiting class for 2023, but Presley teamed up with Cole Martin to form one of the best corner recruiting pairs in the country.
His decision propelled the Ducks to the top 25 of the recruiting rankings at 247Sports, while the Oregon class is the highest in the country with only 10 or fewer commitments. The Ducks have enjoyed five consecutive years in the top 16, and Lanning is on the right track to keep that streak alive.
