It’s been said before, and deserves to be said again – recruiting has forever been, and will forever be, one of wildest beats around. If you need validation, look no further than what has recently transpired in the roller coaster recruitments of Bru McCoy and Chris Steele, two of the most highly-touted prospects from southern […]
“Go west, young man!” Those may not have necessarily been the words going through Chris Steele‘s head earlier this spring, but they certainly rang true in recent weeks as the true freshman announced his intention to transfer from the University of Florida. This following a disturbing incident involving a former teammate and roommate of Steele’s […]
In the midst of the excitement and star-gazing that took place in the hours that followed the announcement that five-star defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux would be taking his talents to Eugene next season, there was also news of a departure from the Ducks’ 2019 recruiting class. After committing to Oregon in late July, Yuma (Ariz.) […]
There was no game on Oregon’s schedule Saturday, but there’s no doubting the fact the Ducks scored a major victory that could have a resounding impact for the football program for years to come. Before a national television audience during halftime of the New Mexico Bowl on ESPN, Thousand Oaks (Calif.) Oaks Christian five-star defensive […]
Another day, another de-commitment. On the heels of Tuesday’s news that Louisville (Ky.)

This was proved Saturday night, as […]
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 […]
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 […]
If you’re a Duck fan who follows recruiting, there is very little worth quibbling over at this present moment. In fact, if you find yourself quibbling, you’re likely a professional quibbler who is rarely – if ever – satisfied with anything. The truth is Oregon currently has the nation’s 7th-ranked recruiting class for 2019 – […]
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.
