    THE LATEST: Oregon and 5-Star Safety Faheem Delane

     

    January has been a busy recruiting month for the Oregon Ducks and they're set to host Olney (Md.) Our Lady Good Counsel safety Faheem Delane for a visit on January 26. He's the No. 1 ranked safety in the 2025 class (per 247SportsComposite) and spoke with Ducks Digest about the latest in his recruitment.

     

    "Coach Lanning, he used to coach at Georgia so he knows what good football looks like," he said. "This past season they really were one game away from being in the playoff beating Washington and Washington was a national championship contender. So that really shows you how close they are."

     

    The head man in Eugene is what stands out most to Delane, particularly his commitment to the Ducks and love for the program.

     

    "I would say the head coach, of course. Coach Lanning. You know, it was a big thing everybody said he was going to 'Bama, everybody said this.

     

    He posted that big thing that he was he was staying at Oregon. That just shows you how much he loves Oregon and it's his future there." He has strong ties with the Ducks at both the coach and player level. "I talk to Coach (Chris) Hampton the safeties coach. He calls me a lot.

     

    I talked to Coach Lanning on FaceTime a few days ago. Just excited for my visit up there.

    Oregon Set to Host Washington CB Jabbar Muhammad Ahead of Commitment

     

    Dan Lanning and the Ducks look like they'll get their chance as the last visit for Muhammad before he makes his final decision. He had previously told Ducks Digest that he wanted to make his commitment this week, but it looks like his timeline is getting pushed back to allow him to see what Oregon has to offer.

     

    "They got everything you need to be successful and like I said that's kind of like exactly what I'm looking for at the end of the day," he said of his Oregon interest in a recent interview. "They have stability there. Obviously with Coach Lanning turning down jobs and everything. Oregon's building something really special."

     

    Transfer portal recruitments are extremely fluid and can change in an instant. So I wouldn't be surprised if this trip got moved up to earlier next week. But right now it looks like you shouldn't count out the Ducks for Muhammad.

    Not sure if you have listen to this full video from Josh Pate, about a week old, but it's really good.  8.5 minutes Long.

     

    This was from a Bama fan:

     

    I believe Dan Lanning will be the next great college football coach in the history of college football... he has the youth, the skill, the gravitas, and the courageous dedication... and, I believe this as a lifelong Bama fan... too bad he won't come to Bama but that is part and parcel of his greatness... his dedication to his school, team, and fans... much like Nick Saban.

    I think it's inevitable Autzen will be upgraded all the way around, including enlarging the North side.  Especially due to joining the Big Ten and a possible home game during the playoffs.

     

    Big Ten fans travel well.  I can see the possibility of expanding.

    Autzen is the fifth-largest football stadium in the Pac-12, but it will be the 13th-largest in the 18-team Big Ten.

     

     

    It’s All-American Bowl season in the world of college football recruiting, and things were kicked off earlier this month with the 2024 Under Armour All-American Bowl down in Orlando, Florida, and the All-American Bowl in San Antonio, Texas.

     

    Now we head to Hawaii, where the eyes of college football fans will turn to the historic Polynesian Bowl.

     

    The game will be televised on NFL Network and FUBO, kicking off at 6 p.m. PT. A total of 10 Oregon Duck signees from the 2024 recruiting class are playing in the game, looking to showcase their skills and prove why they were such highly-rated recruits throughout the process.

     

    On top of just the Oregon commits, though, there are a lot of players in this game who Duck fans should keep an eye on. Whether or not they considered Oregon in the recruiting process — and could potentially consider them again in a potential transfer situation down the road — some of the best players in the nation will be playing in this game.

     

    Here’s who you should keep an eye on:

    The annual Polynesian Bowl will kick off on Friday night, with almost two dozen players that Oregon Duck fans need to keep an eye on.

     

     

    The minute after Michigan was presented the national championship trophy in Houston, the college football season -- and its accompanying predictions -- flipped to 2024.

     

    If ever there was a Y2K year in college football, this was it -- but the lights didn't go out in NRG Stadium and the sport began its journey into unprecedented change that includes sweeping conference realignment and a 12-team playoff that will again alter how the champion is crowned.

     

    Ready or not, here it comes.

     

    "The change is real," SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said. "You can either run from it and hide, or you can embrace it."
