Fontana athlete Devon Blackmon told ESPN.com’s Greg Biggins this week his three finalists are UCLA, USC and Oregon. And he said they’re currently even.

“I know everyone thinks I’m a lock to go to Oregon right now but honestly, USC and UCLA have just as good a shot too,” Blackmon said. “I like all three of these schools equally and I probably won’t decide anything until signing day or real close to it.”

Blackmon (6-0, 180), a 4-star athlete who can play receiver or tailback and has also played quarterback, had a home visit with UCLA running backs coach Wayne Moses on Thursday and said he plans to visit the school soon. He also has a visit set up with USC in January.


UCLA was thought to be the early leader before Blackmon met with Oregon in November and appeared headed to the Ducks.

The Bruins are without a receiver commit from the 2011 class, this after losing Brandin Cooks to Oregon State in November. UCLA also has just one 4-star prospect committed, quarterback Brett Hundley.
