Versatile, ball-hawking Oregon State defensive back with JUCO polish
Kahanu Kalahiki looks like a useful, high-energy fit in Oregon State’s secondary: at City College of San Francisco in the 2025 season, he played 13 games and posted 50 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, two sacks, two interceptions, and a 92-yard fumble return touchdown, with Oregon State and SI both pointing to his instincts and disruptive playmaking. He’s a 6-1, 200-pound sophomore DB who can flash at safety, and the appeal is clear—he brings physicality, range, and turnovers rather than just empty coverage reps. If your team wants an active, instinctive defensive back with a knack for splash plays, he’s worth attention.
