| Oregon recruit pleads, keeps roster spot Quote:
EUGENE, Ore. (AP) -- Marvin Johnson, a University of Oregon football recruit who faced charges of sexual abuse, has pleaded guilty to lesser charges and will join the team this fall.
The 18-year-old from Compton, Calif., pleaded guilty Monday to criminal trespassing and harassment. He was sentenced to probation and 30 days in jail. The resolution means Johnson will keep his full scholarship, said Dave Williford, the university's media services director.
