Elijah Blades, nation's No. 1 JC CB, commits to Oregon Ducks over Alabama, LSU, others

The Oregon Ducks football program is on fire on the recruiting trail, landing a four-star commitment for the third consecutive day.

The week began with the pledges of four-star safety Trikweze Bridges and four-star wide receiver Mycah Pittman, continued the following day with the addition of Bryan Addison, the nation's No. 3 athlete in 2018, but the Ducks weren't done.

On Wednesday, 247Sports four-star junior college cornerback Elijah Blades announced his commitment to Oregon over offers from Alabama, Florida, LSU, Miami (Fla.), Tennessee, Texas and others:

The 6-foot-2, 170-pound defensive back, out of Arizona Western College, is rated the nation's top junior college cornerback and joins a talented class of cornerbacks and safeties that includes Bridges, four-star safety Jeremiah Criddell and four-star cornerback MyKael Wright.
