The speedster from Temple, Texas has been compared to former USC star Reggie Bush.

High school football players can begin signing their letters of intent on February 3rd, and as the anticipation is beginning to build across the country, Oregon football's incoming recruiting class just got a big boost.

Lache Seastrunk from Temple, Texas said today he is going to be a Duck. Seastrunk is the fourth-ranked running back in the nation, and he rushed for 1,179 and 11 touchdowns as a senior.

He is regarded as one of the fastest players in the nation at his position, and his electrifying runs have even led to comparisons to Heisman Trophy winner and USC great Reggie Bush.

Seastrunk picked Oregon over LSU, Baylor and Auburn.

He was reportedly favoring USC until Pete Carroll left to become the head coach of the Seahawks.
