There are commitments you see coming from a country mile, and then there are commitments that smack you right upside the head. The verbal commitment the Ducks received Tuesday night from Auburn (Calif.) Placer three-star offensive lineman Joey Capra definitely qualifies as the latter. Formerly a verbal commit to Arizona State, Capra – the younger […]
The Ducks have officially rebounded from the two de-commitments they suffered in June. On the heels of Monday’s verbal commitment from Lanett (Ala.) four-star safety Trikweze Bridges, Wednesday saw the Ducks fill their recruiting void at defensive back completely, as they landed a verbal commitment from four-star JUCO cornerback Elijah Blades. The commitment from Blades gives […]
Behold! Football season is nigh! Believe it or not, mere weeks separate us between now and the start of fall camp for the Oregon Ducks. As preseason camp fast approaches, we at WFOD will be rolling out a series of previews to help fully prepare you for the upcoming season. Saturday marks the continuation of […]
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, […]
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 […]
Oregon defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt is a damn miracle worker. In his first year directing the Duck defense, Leavitt not only drastically improved their performance in traditional statistical categories such as total defense (surrendering 518.4 yards/game in 2016 to 369.2 yards/game in 2017) and yards allowed per play (6.41 in ’16 to 5.07 in ’17), […]
Sunday was quite a day around the Hatfield-Dowlin Complex in Eugene. Not only did the Ducks pick up their second wide receiver commitment for the 2019 recruiting class in four-star Josh Delgado, but they also added another massive piece to their offensive line for 2019 in four-star lineman Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu. Ranked as the nation’s No. 1 […]
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 […]
