In this weekly feature on Rivals.com, we take a look at the weekend’s standout performances from both college and pro football, and pick one player from each star rankings group to spotlight.
This week's former 4-star is Oregon WR Darren Carrington. Here's the section on him:
As a recruit: Carrington had his share of Power Five offers but despite being from San Diego, he was overlooked by both USC and UCLA. He committed to Oregon during the summer prior to his senior year and stuck with the Ducks despite a late flirtation with Arizona State.
What he did this weekend: It’s been a season to forget for the Ducks, but Carrington made the game-winning catch in the school’s 30-28 upset victory over then-No. 12 ranked Utah. Carrington hauled in a 17-yard pass with two seconds left on the clock that was initially ruled incomplete before being overturned and ruled a touchdown. The roller coaster play sums Carrington’s career, which has included stellar play but also off-field issues. His four-star ranking appears to be spot on and he’s likely to get a shot at the NFL down the road.
