Recruiting: Pittman was considered a heavy Florida lean after a visit to Gainesville during the spring, but everything quickly changed after he took a visit to Oregon. The Ducks emerged as the leader and received the commitment during the summer leading up to his senior season. He did take an official visit to Florida during his season, but never seriously wavered from the Ducks.

At Oregon: Pittman finished his time at Oregon with 38 catches for 547 yards and two touchdowns. In seven games this season, he had 12 receptions for 197 yards. He also returned 15 punts for 151 yards.

Potential landing spots: As expected, Pittman has received serious interest from numerous programs. A few to keep an eye on include Florida State, Auburn, Indiana, Penn State, Texas, USC, South Carolina, Mississippi State and Minnesota.

Farrell’s Take: I feel Pittman will stay west so that means USC could have the distinct advantage here but other schools will get involved. He certainly has the skillset to impact immediately with good speed and he's a powerful kid. It's surprising he didn't pan out at Oregon.

Impact Meter: 8.3 out of 10

IMPACT METER

The Transfer Portal continues to change the way college football programs recruit and manage their rosters so we here at Rivals.com continue to evolve our coverage. Each time a player of note enters the portal, we will examine their potential impact on the college football landscape and assign an impact rating, both when they enter the portal and when they choose a destination. The scale is from 1-10 and the description below explains the scoring scale.

1.1-4.0 — Not a big impact expected, likely a non-starter and down the bench depth player.

4.1- 6.0 — A solid impact can be expected in the right scenario and has the potential to battle for a starting job.

6.1-9.0. — A high impact player who won’t change a program but will certainly be a very good contributor and starter.

9.1- 9.9 — A very high impact player who should start the moment he steps on the field and will change the outlook of a program immediately.

10 — A franchise transfer who has a chance to be an All American and one of the elite players in college football.
