After a sleepy start to the spring, the Ducks have emerged as lions on the recruiting trail after notching a handful of high-profile commitments over the past several weeks. Yet, the latest addition to their momentum-gathering 2021 recruiting class wasn’t exactly a household name in recruiting circles when the spring began. My, what a difference […]
When we look back at the pivotal moments for Mario Cristobal and the Oregon Ducks during the 2021 recruiting cycle, it’s likely that we’ll look at May as the month that shifted their recruiting class into overdrive. On Friday, the Ducks picked up their sixth May commitment with the pledge of Perkinston (Miss.) Mississippi Gulf […]
Who says nothing grows in the desert? Certainly not Mario Cristobal, who is finding the Desert Southwest – and in particular, the state of Arizona – to be especially fertile recruiting territory for the Ducks during the 2021 recruiting cycle. With prospects such as four-star quarterback Ty Thompson and four-star offensive linemen Bram Walden and […]
While the real world continues to grapple with the crippling impact of COVID-19, few programs across the country have reaped the kind of rewards that Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal and his coaching staff have received on the recruiting trail during the month of May. That hot streak continued in emphatic fashion Wednesday evening, when […]
To this point in the 2021 recruiting cycle, it’s hard to argue that Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal hasn’t had his pick of the litter when it comes to identifying and ultimately landing some of the best offensive line talent on the West Coast. That was proven to be true once again Monday, as Cristobal […]
After going weeks without a verbal commitment between mid-March and the start of May, the Ducks have landed a pair of commitments within the span of a week, as Scottsdale (Ariz.)

It was exactly one month ago the last time the Ducks unofficially added a notable player to the football program, as Boston College graduate transfer Anthony Brown made the call for Oregon on April 1. Since then, however, little has happened in an official capacity. The Ducks have apparently filled their previously open wide receivers […]
In a day and age of uncertainty, it only makes sense that high school prospects across the land are taking a step back and trying to make sense of a recruiting landscape clouded by the coronavirus threat. And though Tuesday’s announcement by La Mesa (Calif.) Helix four-star offensive lineman Josh Simmons to de-commit from Oregon’s […]
There’s no doubt that these are strange times we’re living in. With the coronavirus outbreak bringing life as we know it to an unprecedented standstill for the foreseeable future, there’s been little sense of normalcy in recent days. Even the tireless world of college football recruiting has been slowed some, as travel for coaches and […]
A 2020 recruiting class that was headlined by a trio of five-star signees in Noah Sewell, Justin Flowe, and Dontae Manning gives way to a 2021 cycle that will look to be replicated – or perhaps even improved upon – by Ducks head coach Mario Cristobal and his slightly new-look coaching staff. Gone from last […]
