Scout.com ranks Hunter Rison as a four-star wide receiver. He is ranked as the No. 38 wide receiver in the 2017 class and the No. 270 overall player.

Rison holds offers from Alabama, Arizona State, Michigan State and UCLA. He had previously committed to Michigan State; however, he has opened up his commitment.

Oregon's secret weapon to land Rison is 2017 Oregon QB commit Ryan Kelley. Kelley and Rison played together at Basha High School in Arizona during their freshman and sophomore seasons.

"Ever since then we've been on point. We went to the same high school and had a plan to play together," Rison said, per The Oregonian. "We're just so tight, it's crazy. I live so far away from him now, but we still talk every day. That's my dude."
