Oregon football's 2027 recruiting class now ranks No.
3 nationally and No.
1 in the Big Ten.
Xavier Sabb, a 6-1, 195-pound wide receiver from Glassboro High School, has committed to the Oregon Ducks.
Sabb is the Ducks' third five-star recruit to commit in the 2027 cycle.
He announced his commitment on Rivals Youtube channel, delighting Ducks fans.
Sabb picked Oregon despite having a family connection with the Alabama Crimson Tide and didn't hold back on why the Ducks were his first choice.
Sabb mentioned winning the College Football Playoff National Championship as a key factor in his decision.The Ducks have competed deeper into the playoff in every season under coach Dan Lanning, and it is clear the highly-touted recruit has a vision of bringing the program's first-ever title to Eugene.
The Ducks went head-to-head with SEC powers LSU and Tennessee, two legitimate contenders, and still landed Sabb.
Oregon's coaching staff made a big impact on Sabb, and wide receivers coach Ross Douglas was his primary recruiter.Douglas has been the primary recruiter for five-star receiver Jalen Lott and other top recruits.
Sabb is rated as the No.
44 overall player nationally and the No.
2 recruit in the state of New Jersey, per 247Sports.
Sabb's decision gives the Ducks their 24th commit of the 2027 recruiting class and their third five-star, with Guerrant and edge rusher Rashad Streets.As a junior, Sabb earned Gatorade Player of the Year in New Jersey after playing both receiver and safety at Glassboro High School.
He totaled 59 catches for 896 yards and 13 touchdowns.
With the commitment of Sabb, the Ducks are threatening to deliver their second consecutive top-five-ranked recruiting class under Lanning.The only two schools to rank ahead of the Ducks in the 2027 recruiting class rankings include the Texas A&M Aggies (No.
1) and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish (No.
2).
With Sabb and Guerrant both committed to Oregon, the Ducks have a scary young receiver duo.
The future of the receivers room in Eugene looks like it could be a problem for opposing Big Ten defenses with two blue-chip pass catchers in the same cycle.A native of Harper Woods, Michigan, Guerrant committed to the Ducks over his home-state team, the Michigan Wolverines.
By the time Sabb and Guerrant arrive in Eugene, the Ducks roster could include Jeremiah McClellan and Dakorien Moore, plus former five-star wide receiver recruit Gatlin Bair.
Bair is set to make his debut this season for the Ducks and has the potential to be one of the top receivers in the country.Lanning and the Ducks are landing exciting new Ducks with a recruiting pitch that seems to be centered on real relationships where families feel comfortable, with the chance to contend and win big.
