Russo is ranked ahead of highly-touted signal callers Jarrett Guarantano (4) and Dwayne Haskins Jr. (3), who spurned Rutgers for Tennessee and Maryland, respectively.

He was a long shot to even make it to Oregon, as most of the 30 semifinalists were national quarterback recruits, including five-stars Jacob Eason (Georgia commit), Shea Patterson (Ole' Miss) and Malik Henry (Florida State).

A three-star recruit according to the 247Sports.com composite, Russo originally received his Rutgers offer at unofficial visitors' weekend in March, ultimately selecting the Scarlet Knights over UConn, Buffalo, Temple and multiple FCS schools.
