Planning to play the receiver position in college football, Oregon made an impression on Guerrant when he was out in Eugene back in June. During his conversation with Rivals' Max Torres, it's evident that the trip with the Ducks during the summer was so convincing that it led to scheduling the late October visit with his family coming alongside him.

“They’re definitely a top school. They’re recruiting me very, very, very hard, so that’s always good to know that the school that I’m being recruited by or the school I want to go to is recruiting me very hard. It just helps me knock schools off. It just sets the standard for other schools.”

Oregon's first-year wide receiver coach Ross Douglas continues to be aggressive since stepping on campus when it comes to finding 2027 recruits.
