NJDuck and I have never gone through a whole year cycle of postings regarding recruiting before, so this has been a learning experience. Along with the fact that Coach Lanning and his crew are such good recruiters, this thread grows quickly.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 4 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Oregon DL Target Jericho Johnson Picks up New Recruiting Prediction On Tuesday, it looks like the Ducks are gaining ground with one of their top uncommitted targets in the 2024 recruiting class. Fairfield (Calif.) Armijo defensive lineman Jericho Johnson has been predicted to commit to the Oregon Ducks by Justin Hopkins of On3's ScoopDuck.com. Johnson was on campus over the weekend for an unofficial visit and saw Oregon blow the doors off of Colorado en route to a 42-6 win. He's working from a final four of Oregon, USC, Utah and Washington and spoke highly of the coaching staff, particularly defensive coordinator Tosh Lupoi, leading up to the visit...

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 7 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Sione Laulea III, Nation's No. 1 JUCO Prospect, Sets Commitment Date 2024 College of San Mateo (Calif.) cornerback Sione Lauleaa III has set a commitment date. The nation's No. 1 junior college prospect will announce his college commitment on October 8 at 5:00 pm PT, according to story posted on his instagram page. He'll choose from a final three of the Oregon Ducks, USC Trojans and the Miami Hurricanes. Laulea is rated a four-star (0.9000) recruit by the 247Sports Composite Juco. The same system ranks him the No. 1 player nationally, the No. 1 cornerback and the No. 1 recruit in California. Listed at 6'4", 185 pounds, his unique blend of size, speed and agility is part of what helped him garner 18 reported scholarship offers. In the months leading up to his college commitment he took official visits to Oregon, USC, Penn State, Miami and Utah. Oregon wasn't considered much of a contender in his recruitment until he took his final official visit to Eugene in June, and the Ducks, led by defensive coordinator Tosh Lupoi and cornerbacks coach Demetrice Martin, showed him that he has a home in Eugene and can be developed into an NFL cornerback. "But as soon as I got to put my own two feet on the campus, I got to see the true development and true love behind the coaching staff," Laulea told Ducks Digest of the trip. "Coach Tosh Lupoi, he was well-invested in in my time being there. He almost didn't leave my side. Which meant a lot to me." Further aiding Oregon's chances in this recruitment is the development of cornerback Christian Gonzalez, who was selected by the New England Patriots in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft. In the short few weeks since the NFL season began, Gonzalez has put the league on notice, grabbing his first interception and registering his first NFL sack. But Martin's trail of strong cornerback development doesn't stop there, as Oregon cornerbacks Khyree Jackson and Jahlil Florence have been instrumental in the Ducks' defense showing so much promise in 2023.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 8 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Ducks become heavy favorites to land top-uncommitted RB in 2024 class It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster when it comes to the recruiting predictions for 4-star running back Jason Brown, the No. 2 rated player from the state of Washington. Originially, the Washington product was favored to pick the hometown Washington Huskies, but earlier this summer, some predictions came in for Brown — a 4-star player rated as the No. 113 overall prospect in the 2024 class, and the No. 6 overall RB — to land with the Michigan State Spartans. However, after taking a visit to Oregon over the weekend for their demolition of the Colorado Buffaloes, Brown is now being predicted to land with Dan Lanning and the Ducks. On Wednesday, a pair of Crystal Ball predictions came in from 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong and Brandon Huffman for Brown to land in Eugene. There is not yet any word on when Brown will make his commitment, but things are looking good for the Ducks at the moment. Currently, Oregon has the No. 12 recruiting class in 2024, with 3-star RB Da’Jaun Riggs being the only other player at that position in this class.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 10 Share Posted September 28, 2023 Prediction: Oregon Ducks to Land Elite Defensive Back The Ducks should be viewed as the frontrunners for one of the nation's best. Oregon's defense looks like it's finally growing into its own under head coach Dan Lanning and defensive coordinator Tosh Lupoi. After slowing down an explosive Colorado offense to a screeching halt in week 4, multiple players look like they're on the brink of breakout seasons. The win over the Buffs generated some solid recruiting momentum, as 2026 5-star defensive lineman Tony Cumberland announced his commitment to Oregon shortly after the game. With 22 verbal commitments in the Ducks' 2024 recruiting class, remaining spots are likely at a premium and I think this coaching staff is on the verge of adding another big-time talent. Today I'm predicting 2024 College of San Mateo cornerback Sione Laulea III to commit to the Oregon Ducks.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 11 Share Posted September 28, 2023 SEC, Big 10 programs building elite 2024 recruiting classes in the trenches Winning at the line of scrimmage is paramount at any level of football, but especially when it comes to playing and recruiting at the highest levels of college football. If you needed any more proof of that, look at what Georgia has done in the past two years by dominating at the point of attack en route to consecutive national championships. The SEC has staked its claim to the country’s elite big men in recent years, but there’s plenty of physical football going on in the Big Ten. And that isn’t changing any time soon. The 2024 recruiting class isn’t as deep along the offensive line as previous years, but there’s a wealth of talent on the defensive side of the ball — especially at the DL and EDGE positions. Nearly all of the country’s top interior players are off the board by late September, so let’s take a look at what programs have built the biggest and best classes in the trenches with blue-chips at the OT, IOL, DL and EDGE spots.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 18 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Dan Lanning, Oregon coaches jump on recruiting opportunity during bye week One of the most obvious benefits of a bye week in college football is the fact that it gives your team an opportunity to recuperate and get healthy for the remaining games on the schedule. For the Oregon Ducks, that couldn’t be more of the case than it is this year, facing No. 7 Washington, No. 13 Washington State, and No. 18 Utah in the three consecutive weeks after the bye. With all of that being said, one of the more underrated aspects of a bye week is the opportunity that it affords the coaching staff. Rather than staying in town and crunching film all weekend, many teams have their coaching staff go out across the nation over the weekend and recruit some of the top players. That’s what Dan Lanning and the Ducks did this weekend. On Friday night, Oregon coaches were seen under Friday night lights across the west coast and into the midwest, checking in on some of Oregon’s top prospects in the 2024 and 2025 classes. Here’s a look at where the Ducks’ coaches were, and who they were checking out...

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 32 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Solomon Williams Making Important Return Visit to Oregon This Weekend Oregon will get one of their top targets in the 2024 recruiting class back on campus this weekend. On Tuesday, Tampa (Fla.) Carrollwood Day edge rusher Solomon Williams announced that he will be in Eugene for a visit when the Ducks take on the Washington State Cougars. Listed at 6'3", 225 pounds, Williams has made a name for himself as one of the best edge rushers that has yet to find a home. He's rated a four-star (0.9192) recruit according to the 247Sports Composite. The same system ranks him the No. 217 player nationally, the No. 18 edge rusher and the No. 30 recruit in Florida. Williams was originally scheduled to take his Oregon official visit back in September when the Ducks played Colorado, but had to reschedule, which makes this trip that much more important as Dan Lanning aims for a strong close this cycle. The Florida product is working from a top five that consists of Oregon, Alabama, Clemson, Texas and Texas A&M. He made his most recent visit to Texas in late September for a 40-14 win over Kansas. He has yet to set a commitment date, but appears to be closing in on the end of his recruiting process. Williams is one of two edge rushers the Ducks are pushing hard for in the 2024 class, along with Tucson (Ariz.) Salpointe Catholic standout Elijah Rushing.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 37 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Oregon Coaches Make Interesting Visit Friday Night A few Oregon coaches hit the road to visit the fastest senior in the country. He's currently committed to another school. We all know that recruiting never stops. A few Oregon coaches, specifically wide receivers coach Junior Adams and special teams coordinator Joe Lorig were on the road Friday night doing some recruiting and their stop may have surprised fans. Last night they stopped in Idaho to visit 2024 Burley (Id.) Senior wide receiver Gatlin Bair. Bair is rated a four-star (0.9787) recruit on the 247Sports Composite and he shocked the country when he committed to Andy Avalos and the Boise State Broncos in August. He chose Boise State from a top five that included Oregon, Nebraska, Michigan and TCU. He's clearly a talented wide receiver, but what everyone knows him for is his speed. Bair is the fastest player in the country and runs a blazing 10.15 in the 100 meters. He's even beaten Oregon freshman defensive back Rodrick Pleasant, a California state record holder, in a head-to-head race. You can't teach speed, and that's what's made Bair such a highly-coveted athlete from coast to coast. To acces the article, click here. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was another big recruiting weekend for Oregon when they faced Washington State. The headliner of the weekend was five-star Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy offensive tackle Jordan Seaton, who was in town for an unofficial visit. He took some time to speak with Ducks Digest about that visit and what it meant for his recruitment. "I definitely got to put some eyes on the school and see how they operate, which was good," Seaton said. "Being able to just experience the family environment from Dan Lanning and his playing and the coaching environment was definitely good." There was one aspect of the trip that left a particularly strong impression on the elite offensive lineman. "One other thing that I like about the Oregon Ducks is basically the player relationships with the coaches. It's one of a kind. You can't find that at too many spots nowadays."

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 44 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Oregon Continues Surging for Five-Star EDGE Elijah Rushing The Ducks have been the heavy favorite since Rushing de-committed from Arizona earlier this month. Oregon appears to be gaining more momentum on the recruiting trail in the 2024 class. They just hosted two of their top targets for visits this weekend in elite offensive tackle Jordan Seaton and four-star edge rusher Solomon Williams. On Tuesday, the Ducks picked up two new 247Sports crystal ball predictions to land Tucson (Ariz.) Salpointe Catholic five-star edge rusher Elijah Rushing. The predictions come from two of the heavyweights covering West Coast recruiting, National Recruiting Editor Brandon Huffman and National Recruiting Analyst Greg Biggs. Both predictions were logged with a "6" or medium confidence level, and they join earlier crystal ball predictions from Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong and Mountain Region Recruiting Analyst Blair Angulo. Rushing initially committed to Arizona in July, but chose to reopen his recruitment on October 8. He was the highest-rated recruit in Arizona program history. Now the 6-foot-6, 251 pounder is the top uncommitted recruit out West in the 2024 class. He was viewed as a heavy Oregon lean prior to his commitment to Jedd Fisch and the Wildcats. Oregon commits have been chiming in to do some recruiting of their own and help the staff with the elite edge rusher. To access details in the article, click here.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 46 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Solomon Williams Has Oregon in Top Two Schools, Per Report Over the weekend Oregon hosted Tampa (Fla.) Carrollwood Day edge Solomon Williams for an official visit. The 6-foot-3, 235-pound defender had Oregon in his top five schools heading into the trip along with Alabama, Clemson, Texas and Texas A&M. Coming out of this weekend's trip for the Washington State game, there's increasingly strong buzz about Oregon's standing. According to a report from 247Sports Director of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong, Williams now has Oregon in his top two schools. The Ducks have one edge rusher committed in the 2024 class in Yuma (Ariz.) Catholic standout Jaxson Jones, and they would certainly like to add Williams to the fold. What makes things more interesting is that they continue to pick up momentum to land five-star Tucson (Ariz.) Salpointe Catholic edge rusher Elijah Rushing. Oregon built significant recruiting momentum when they landed five-star Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei defensive lineman Aydin Breland, and it looks like they're working to parlay that into their recruitment of Williams. In addition to Wiltfong's big update on Williams, Chad Simmons of On3 Sports was able to speak with the Florida product, and he told Simmons that he liked what he saw with Oregon's development at his position. "They blew my expectations out of the water and really made it clear where development for the edge position is at," he told Simmons. It's worth noting that Oregon had two of their three true freshmen edge rushers record sacks against Washington state with Williams in attendance. To access details in this article, click here.

Pennsylvania Duck Author Moderator No. 48 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Roger Saleapaga Locks in Oregon Official Visit as Commitment Nears One of Oregon's top targets will be back in Eugene this weekend. 2024 Orem (Ut.) tight end/wide receiver Roger Saleapaga will take his official visit to Oregon on November 11 when the Ducks face off against the USC Trojans, he told Ducks Digest. The upcoming trip will be his second to Oregon this fall, as he was also in Eugene when the Ducks played Colorado. "That trip was fun," he said. "Colorado offered me too, but it was fun to see Oregon win and put some numbers up on the board. I'm an offensive player so I love seeing that happen." Saleapaga has been a frequent visitor in Eugene and his admiration for the program only continues to grow as Dan Lanning tries to take the Ducks back to the top of the Pac-12. "I always loved Oregon. I was there I think five times now," the Utah product said. "I always love going back to Eugene. Oregon's still so me. Still high up there on my board. I love the coaches. What Coach (Dan) Lanning is building up there I really love." To see more details, click here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
