Oregon was once the hottest recruiting team in the country this summer, but their 2025 momentum has slowed in the last 10 days.
The decommitments are noticeable, but not a sign of broader recruiting issues for the Ducks’ head coach/staff.
On today’s episode of Locked On Ducks, I am joined by Locked On recruiting insider Brian Smith.
He shares updates on a trio of 5-star recruits Oregon is after in 2025: Michael Terry III, Trey McNutt, and Jonah Williams.
Dan Lanning has also begun the Ducks’ 2026 recruiting efforts with the verbal commitment of 4-star RB Tradarian Ball.
Brian shares thoughts on his film and an update on 2026 4-star TE Brock Harris.
