Rutgers quarterback commit Anthony Russo, a 6-3, 225-pound junior from Archbishop Wood (Warminster, Pa.), can officially call himself an Elite 11 quarterback.

Russo earned one of the top 11 spots following a consistent performance throughout the week.

Arguably the top riser of anyone who attended The Opening, Russo turned heads almost as soon as the competition began.

He was even ranked as high as second

four of

the competition.

Russo 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.

However, there's a good chance Russo will receive a significant bump, according to 247Sports director of scouting Barton Simmons.

"I think he's got the skill-set," said Simmons. "He absolutely has four-star tools."

Steve Wiltfong, director of recruiting, also at 247Sports, was pleasantly surprised by Russo's performance, as well.

"The kid, he's just really, he's been the guy that has come in here and quickly proved he belongs," he said. "Obviously, everyone else here is high-profile with the exception of like one other dude. And Russo walks in and he's arguably as good as anybody here."

USA Today national college football writer Paul Myerberg was one of the many analysts baffled by Russo's two-star rating, awarded by certain recruiting networks.

Also, if Anthony Russo is a two-star QB I'm an astronaut. He should leap in recruiting rankings. Great evaluation/get by Rutgers. — Paul Myerberg (@PaulMyerberg) July 9, 2015
