Pass catcher was clearly a position of focus this recruiting cycle as the Ducks secured pledges from four receivers and a pair of tight ends.
Even more impressive, Oregon was able to flip a pair of 4-star wide receivers, Ryan Pellum from USC and Jeremiah McClellan from Ohio State. Notably, Lanning held on to every verbal commitment he had entering the day. Head Coach Dan Lanning secured a top-5 ranked recruiting class in just his 3 rd signing day. The standout recruits in this group include defensive lineman Aydin Breland and edge-rusher Elijah Rushing, both recognized as five-star prospects by 247Sports and ranked in the top 20 nationally. Out of the 25 scholarship recruits (24 prep and one Juco) so far committed to the Ducks for the 2024 cycle, 20 boast a 4-star rating or above in the 24/7 composite. The early signing period for college football opened yesterday, as expected there were plenty of fireworks across the country as the nation’s top recruits sent in their National Letter of Intent (NLI) and cemented their college destinations.
