Brandon Arrington Jr., a sought-after athlete from Spring Valley, California, is making waves in the 2026 recruiting class. Known for his dual abilities as a wide receiver and cornerback, the five-star prospect has amassed over 40 offers.
After visiting their campus, Arrington recently made headlines by highlighting Oregon, a Big Ten powerhouse, as one of his preferred schools. Speaking on his experience, Arrington said:
“It is that program that can get you to your max potential.”
On3’s Chad Simmons shared on X that Oregon stands out among his options following his visit to Eugene.

Fans had mixed reactions to Arrington’s remarks. One said:
“Their logo represents their total amount of titles.”
“The last time Oregon had a WR drafted in the first round, our president was Richard Nixon,” another fan said.
Here is how other fans reacted:
"Lmfao they literally don't develop ANYONE. Unless the place u want to go is the transfer portal," a fan said.
"Guys guys he’s a young pup. I wouldn’t expect him to know the last time Oregon had a we drafted in the 1st round," another fan said.
"You mean max money lol," one fan said.
Amid the buzz, analyst J.D. PicKell commented on head coach Dan Lanning’s impact, saying:
"Dan Lanning, he’s in his third year at Oregon. Not even 40 years old yet. To define what he is, as a head coach or to craft this narrative around, what Oregon football is based on who Dan Lanning is. That’s just, it’s so useless.”
Beyond football, Arrington is a track sensation, boasting state championship-winning times of 10.33 seconds in the 100-meter dash and 20.55 seconds in the 200-meter dash.
Currently ranked No. 18 nationally, No. 2 in the athlete category, and No. 3 in California, Arrington’s commitment could be pivotal for programs like USC.
Brandon Arrington Jr. draws inspiration from USC legends, maintains strong interest in Trojans
Brandon Arrington Jr. has consistently highlighted USC as a top contender in his recruitment journey. Having visited the campus multiple times, including his first game experience in November, Arrington remains impressed.
Reflecting on his visit, Arrington once shared with On3:
“I had a great experience at USC,” Brandon Arrington told On3’s Chad Simmons after the visit. “It was a great game and I had a great time with the players and the coaches. The atmosphere was fun. The band, the people, the DJ’s – everything was fun.”
Growing up, Arrington admired USC’s storied football history.
“Growing up, I just liked USC,” Brandon Arrington told On3. “I’ve seen their history. I went to Helix and Reggie Bush went to Helix, so I looked up to Reggie Bush. I looked up to Adoree Jackson. I looked up to all those guys. I used to watch them a lot, so they’ve influenced me to always want to go to USC.”
USC’s 2026 recruiting class is currently ranked No. 2 in the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings, with seven commits, including elite cornerbacks RJ Sermons and Brandon Lockhart.
