Oregon’s annual “Saturday Night Live” event – initially implemented by former head coach Willie Taggart – is billed as arguably the biggest recruiting weekend of the offseason, save for perhaps the spring game. Taking place one week before the start of fall camp, Saturday Night Live is a chance for the Oregon coaching staff to […]
When you’re hot, you’re hot, and right now, the Oregon Ducks are a raging recruiting inferno under head coach Mario Cristobal. Monday saw the Ducks add yet another highly-touted prospect to their 2019 recruiting class, as Calabasas (Calif.) four-star wide receiver Mycah Pittman pledged his verbal commit to Oregon. Pittman’s pledge comes only hours after […]
It cannot be stated often enough: There are few things on this earth more inexact and deceiving than recruiting rankings. Yes, there is a correlation between a school’s recruiting ranking at the end of a given cycle and their capacity to ultimately compete for a national championship. However, more often than not, top 10-caliber classes […]
Oregon may have verbal commitments from two of the West Coast’s best defensive tackles already, but for the moment, that evidently hasn’t diminished their chances of landing one of the nation’s top prospects at the position. Despite pledges from four-star Keyon Ware-Hudson and three-star Suaava Poti, the Ducks were included as one of the final […]
It wasn’t that long ago that the Ducks were sitting pretty as it relates to how their 2019 recruiting class was shaping up in the defensive backfield. As the calendar turned to June, Oregon laid claim to verbal commitments from four highly-touted defensive back prospects; a group that included three-stars Marques Caldwell and Cameron Williams, […]
From the time he announced his verbal commitment on January 26, to this present moment, Jalen Hall has remained as perhaps the biggest enigma surrounding the Oregon football program as the 2018 season peaks out over the horizon. Standing 6-foot-4 and 192 pounds, Hall has all the physical traits you could ever want in a […]
The Ducks have been spinning recruiting gold in 2019, building what is on pace to be the best recruiting class in school history by a wide margin. With 14 prospects known to have given the Oregon coaching staff a verbal commitment, the Ducks currently have the nation’s 4th-ranked recruiting class per 247Sports’ Composite Team Rankings, […]
There was a time not that long ago where anxiety was slowly beginning to build amongst Duck fans regarding head coach Mario Cristobal and his staff’s ability to land top flight talent at the wide receiver position for the 2019 cycle. It’s safe to say that after the events of the past couple of weeks, […]
Discounting Arjei Henderson‘s brief three and a half month commitment to the Ducks between July and November of 2017, the first player to commit to Oregon’s 2019 recruiting class became the second member to de-commit from the program in the span of about two and a half weeks. On Wednesday, Alvin (Texas) three-star cornerback Marques […]
To say Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal is placing an emphasis on the trenches would be a gross oversimplification of what’s actually taking place. No, what Cristobal is building is an awe-inspring human citadel; stockpiling offensive linemen like a doomsday prepper does non-perishable food items. The latest addition to Cristobal’s super-sized survival kit: four-star offensive lineman Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu, currently […]
