Overview

  • Pellum announced his transfer on August 13 via Instagram, becoming the last Oregon scholarship player from last season’s roster to commit elsewhere after entering the transfer portal.
  • The four-star 2024 recruit redshirted at Oregon and made one tackle plus one punt return over four games during his freshman season.
  • He will work under former NFL star DeSean Jackson alongside Delaware State receivers coach and ex-Oregon standout Samie Parker.
  • His plea deal required relinquishing firearms, serving probation, completing a 52-week anger management program and logging 100 hours of community service.
  • Jackson has set a Celebration Bowl goal for the Hornets this season, and Pellum’s high school acclaim and FBS experience are expected to bolster their receiving corps.
