Five-Star Offensive Tackle Target Jackson Cantwell Reschedules Oregon Visit Date, Sets Commitment Date

 

Oregon has now gotten back-to-back positive news updates with regards to one of its most important recruiting targets.

 

Five-star offensive tackle Jackson Cantwell was seemingly headed towards a potential commitment. And with that news it didn’t bode well for Oregon. The Ducks have not had Cantwell on campus in a number of months, which is a lifetime in today’s recruiting calendar.

 

 

However the Nixa (Mo.) standout quickly moved up his official visit to Oregon originally to the weekend of April 18. Per On3’s Steve Wiltfong it has now been moved to the weekend of April 25, which is of course the weekend of Oregon’s Spring game. (April 26)

 

This is a huge positive development for Oregon. Not only will that be a high-profile weekend, it will give Oregon to show Cantwell its team and the energy from the Spring game.

No. 1 Quarterback Recruit Jared Curtis Host Georgia, Oregon Coaches Before Commitment

The Oregon Ducks and Georgia Bulldogs are finalists for the No. 1 quarterback recruit in 2026, Jared Curtis. Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein and Georgia offensive coordinator Mike Bobo will visit Curtis before his commitment on May 5.

Three predictions: Osborne’s choice, Brown’s ranking, Oregon’s QB pursuit

Oregon will get either Jared Curtis or Ryder Lyons

 

 
N.RIVALS.COM

Jared Curtis - 2026 5 Star Quarterback for Nashville Christian School (Nashville, TN) on Rivals.com

 

N.RIVALS.COM

Ryder Lyons - 2026 5 Star Quarterback for Folsom (Folsom, CA) on Rivals.com

 

It feels like a fait accompli that Oregon will land a five-star quarterback in this recruiting class; we just don’t know which one yet.

 

Five-star Jared Curtis from Nashville (Tenn.) Christian announces his commitment on May 5 and he’s down to Georgia and Oregon. Curtis has gone silent and hasn’t given many hints on whether the Bulldogs or Ducks will win out, although the feeling is the Bulldogs might have the slightest edge.

 

If Curtis goes to Georgia, then Oregon makes an even bigger move on Ryder Lyons, who is considered basically a 2027 recruit because he’s taking a one-year LDS mission.

 

But the Ducks, Michigan and BYU are three frontrunners for the Folsom, Calif., quarterback and one could surmise that they shoot up even higher if Curtis goes to Athens. Lyons has a phenomenal relationship with offensive coordinator Will Stein, he fits that offensive style well and Oregon will make him an even bigger priority if it loses out on Curtis.

 

It seems unfathomable that Oregon would lose out on both. Either Curtis or Lyons will be headed to Eugene.
