Drew Mehringer: "We've got a very talented room."Co-Offensive Coordinator Drew Mehringer meets with the media following practice on August 4, 2025. Chris Hampton: "The competition has been great."Interesting what coach Hampton is saying "I think we've got all the talent to be a really good secondary. Now we've just got to do it.” "We definitely look the part. We're not as experienced. I think everyone knows that." "We've just got to do it, and continue to grow each and every day. We're going in the right direction." "I think we're still going to run our system, at the end of the day. Obviously we have guys who fit the profile of what we want, height, weight and speed. We've done a great job recruiting, I think, everyone in the organization.” What he is saying, the Ducks secondary will look a lot different this season than last year’s, "taller, stronger, faster defensive backs.” Here’s hoping the first four games before the Penn St. game will reap dividends.

Oregon Recruiting Intel"This is another class that will keep Oregon in the national title discussion for years to come,"Newberg asked him, "Steve, haters will say Oregon bought this class. But I'm here to provide some balance. Because if you're going to say Oregon bought this class, then how are you going to explain missing on Jackson Cantwell? How do you explain missing on Jared Curtis? Missing on Chris Henry Junior? There's been a lot of guys that Oregon has not gotten. For various reasons, not because of NIL." Fans that say Oregon won recuiting battles soley because they bought players is a “cheap and lazy take." "Certainly there are times where Oregon shows up to a gun fight with a bazooka, because they can. And no one should ever apologize for that." "My point is that there are times where Oregon can flex the biggest muscles from a financial package standpoint, but never is there a time where they're out-recruited." Steve Wiltfong is high on Oregon picking up both Davon Benjamin and Deuce Geralds. If so, Oregon most likely move up into the top 3. Oregon picking up four 5-star recruits in Emanuel Iheanacho, Jett Washington, Kendre Harrison, and Anthony (Tank) Jones. This runs about 8 minutes, but great insight from Steve Wilfong, not only what Oregon could do this weekend, but down the road picking up other players before this recruiting season is over.
