Rivals doesn't tend to rank kickers but Chris Sailer does and his top-rated kicker in the 2023 class has committed to Oregon this afternoon. Grant Meadors gave the Ducks his pledge today and the 5-foot-11 prospect is rated as a six-star recruit by Sailer's service, which ranks specialists. The 5-foot-11 recruit carries a 4.5 GPA and has been receiving Power Five interest up to this point in the process. He plays at Liberty High School in Bakersfield, California and holds an offer from Army plus a preferred walk-on opportunity from Oregon State.
Here is a portion of Sailer's breakdown of Oregon's newest 2023 commit: "Grant is a phenomenal high school kicking prospect. He is a tremendous athlete with one of the strongest legs in America. Grant does a excellent job on field goal. He hits a big time college level ball off the ground. Grant gets the ball up well and easily has 55+ yard range. His kickoffs are strong. Grant drives the ball deep into to the end zone with 4.0+ hang time. Also a more than capable punter. Grant is a big time competitor who thrives under pressure."
