Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted June 13, 2023 You could not ask for better... “It’s time to recruit this class and make this the No. 1 class in the country,” QB verbal Michael Van Buren told On3’s Chad Simmons. “I feel like when I put that out there, it could spark decisions from a bunch of other recruits.” “They have great people in the building,” he added. “The opportunity at Oregon is second to none in football and in life. They’re really big on family and feel like coach (Will) Stein can really develop me and maximize my potential.” Meanwhile, San Jacinto (Calif.) On3 four-star wide receiver Dillon Gresham chose the Ducks on May 22. “Everybody knows Oregon,” Gresham told Simmons. “It’s the place to be. I’ve seen what Oregon is trying to build. The players they’re bringing in, it can’t be a fluke. It seems like they’re ready to go after a national championship. I want to be a part of it.” 1 1 2 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDuck Moderator No. 4 Share Posted June 13, 2023 SoCal Native Ryner Swanson Could be an Oregon Duck Very Soon To go along with what you are saying, another recruit could be joining the 2024 class. This is one to keep an eye on. Tight End, much needed to shore up that group. This class is becoming something special. Oregon closes in on a Southern California-based tight end TROJANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM This prospect won’t immediately play college football. We’ll explain why. Swanson commented on the Oregon program: “The vibe fit me more at Oregon,” he said. “They definitely included my family. It was more family-oriented at Oregon. I just loved the vibe, I love the coaches. I met some of the players and I’d say Oregon was a really good fit for me. Texas, I don’t know. But I think Oregon is in the lead.” 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Joseph No. 6 Share Posted June 13, 2023 And Seattle does not appear to be the place to be for recruits. Heartbreaking, right?

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 7 Share Posted June 13, 2023 As great a coach as DeBore is, you cannot overcome a recruiting disadvantage over time. Currently... Washington has two verbals, both are 3-Stars. Oregon has 16 verbals, with nine of them being 4-Stars, and seven as 3-Stars. Gotta love Dan! He takes recruiting seriously... 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tandaian No. 9 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Hopefully, the Ducks can coach up the recruits and they produce on the field. It is always nice to look good on paper, but even better when they look good on the field. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He recruited, but never produced Oregon's recruits to see full potential on the field. If Washington is down to 2 three star recruits. How can they be ranked 7 nationally? Or are they counting transfer portals as well? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 11 Share Posted June 13, 2023 They make reference to the 247 Sports Composite rankings, and I don't know what they are talking about. As for Rivals rankings? Oregon was No. 5 in the nation yesterday, and now is No. 6. Oh dear,...Washington is No. 79! 2024 College football recruiting team rankings N.RIVALS.COM The definitive source for all Rivals news. 1 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now I get it, they made a big fat typo leaving out the '9' following the '7'.. Go Ducks, keep on reaching new heights! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
