Rogers is a 5-foot-11, 190-pound running back from Houston, Texas who the Beavers recruited under Gary Andersen, but has stuck with the program through the coaching change. Rogers held offers from Oregon State, Utah and Florida Atlantic University, but shut down his recruitment once he committed to the Beavs.
Kase Rogers signed during the early signing period with a few of his classmates.
Me and a couple of my teammates will be signing tomorrow Wednesday December 20th

Where: Lamar HS Gym
Time: 3:00pm
This will also be live on ESPNU and open to the public
The Lamar high school native is a great athlete and who has experience at running back and wide receiver. Kase Rogers is a playmaker with the ball in his hands and has breakaway speed that makes him a threat to take it to the endzone at anytime. Rogers was recruited to Oregon State to be a running back, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him contribute on special teams as a kick returner and work out of the slot early in his college career.
