It’s been a few weeks now since 4-star cornerback Jahli Florence made waves in the Oregon circles by announcing his commitment to the Ducks over the USC Trojans.
Florence is now in the news again after announcing that he will be wearing No. 6 in his freshman season with the Ducks next season, joining a legacy of defensive backs in Oregon history to do the same. Here are some notable players to wear the number 6 jersey with pride in recent Oregon memory:
- WR Jaylon Redd
- S Nick Pickett
- CB Deommodore Lenoir
- WR/DB Charles Nelson
- RB De’Anthony Thomas
- WR Demetrius Williams
It’s way too early to put Florence in that category of great players to wear No. 6, but we feel comfortable saying that he has some big shoes to fill.
