  1. College football's top 25 recruiting classes of 2025 after final Top247 rankings update: Big Ten, SEC dominate With the 2025 Top247 finalized, here is 247Sports' updated look at college football's top 2025 recruiting classes before February's Signing Day. Commits: 20 Average: 94.02 Big Ten rank: 2 Of the teams ranked inside the top 10 of the 2025 rankings, Oregon has the smallest class with just 20 signees. But that group certainly is not lacking for quality as the Ducks have the most Top247 signees of any team with 17, which is three more than Texas and Georgia (note: that does include quarterback Jaron Keawe Sagapolutele, who has already transferred to Cal). Each of Oregon's three non-Top247 signees rated as a four-star prospect, giving Dan Lanning's program a 100% blue-chip ratio for the 2025 cycle. The Ducks' class is headlined by a pair of five-stars in top-ranked wide receiver Dakorien Moore and third-ranked cornerback Na'eem Offord. (As stated above, Oregon has the smallest of the classes, but their Average ratio is 94.02. Which is No. 1 on the list of schools. 100% blue chip ratio.) https://247sports.com/college/oregon/longformarticle/college-footballs-top-25-recruiting-classes-of-2025-after-final-top247-rankings-update-big-ten-sec-dominate-244956563/

  3. PODCAST: Recapping Oregon's MASSIVE Junior Day Recruiting Weekend Recruiting never stops and Oregon has been hitting the trail incredibly hard throughout the month of January. Not only are head coach Dan Lanning and his coaching staff on the road throughout the country to see top prospects, they also hosted one of the nation’s most impressive group of recruits for a big visit weekend in Eugene.
