Talanoa Hufanga, Ducks, Beavers target, adds 5th star, climbs above rankings for Thomas Tyner, Colt Lyerla

For years, fans of Oregon high school football have known Crescent Valley athlete Talanoa Hufanga is a special talent.

After his showing at The Opening Finals at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, the whole country is aware of what he can do.

In its updated national rankings, 247Sports named the 6-foot-1, 200-pound athlete a five-star prospect and the No. 1 two-way talent in the country:

"Hufanga is a three-sport athlete that flashed at The Opening but his showing there was more of a cross-check of what we've seen on film. That film is five-star worthy and his in-person performance was good enough to verify that.
