Presley (6-foot-0, 180 pounds) is the No. 1 player in Washington and the No. 13 cornerback in the class.
All in all, Oregon might have it. Better recruiting class, but Washington is an increasingly interesting group. The Huskies finished the season 10-2, including a three-point win over the Eugene Ducks. Flipping Pressley could help Washington face their fiercest rival in the recruiting competition. They are ranked No. 27 and Oregon is No. 12.
Presley may be interested in cooking at home, but he has plenty of options to choose from β 27 in total.
