The recruiting trail really heats up in the final weeks of spring before many of the top available players commit to programs in the summer. The Ducks will host their first batch of official visits this weekend. Top recruits from across the country will be in for the entire weekend, starting on May 29, and get a peek at what it's like to play for the Ducks. Many of these recruits have already taken an unofficial visit to Eugene, but this is really Oregon's last chance to sway some of its favorite prospects in the 2027 class. Here's a look at which recruits will be in Eugene this weekend, as well as where they rank in the Rivals Industry Ranking. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/recruiting/2026/05/27/oregon-football-recruiting-2027-official-visits/90267086007/Wed, 27 May 2026 14:12:43 +0000Wow, I guess I've been to all those games. My favorites: The Civil War for the Roses. Going on memory here, but I believe we possessed the ball for the final nine minutes, strangling the rodents Rose Bowl hopes. The memory of watching the clock tick down to zero as the crowd erupted still gives me chills. Fright Night vs USC. Up yours Pete, your dynasty is over and ours is just beginning. Absolutely electric atmosphere, not sure I've ever heard Autzen louder. Barkley mouths off then gets stuffed for his worst game of the season. Stanford 2010, one of my best fall memories. Fished pre-game for steelhead on the Willamette. My brother and I hooked four and landed two, the latter boated right underneath the Autzen footbridge. Epic comeback punctuated by LMJ's housecall burst right up the middle to put the game on ice. Vs tOSU 2024. There sure was a lot of red in the stands that day, but you couldn't even hear them as they were drowned out by the Autzen faithful. Damn that was a loud one. I was worried bad officiating was going to cost us that day, but in the end OBD pulled it off with clutch plays and a little DL wizardry.Wed, 27 May 2026 03:34:45 +0000Tue, 26 May 2026 22:21:14 +0000Oregon Ducks trending for No. 2 QB in 2028 classIt's official visit season in Eugene for the 2027 recruiting class, but the Oregon Ducks are already getting a head start on the 2028 class. Four-star quarterback Josiah Boyd was offered by the Ducks at the beginning of the month, and Oregon has quickly become a leader for the California passer. Boyd is the No. 2 quarterback and the No. 32 overall player in the 2028 class, per Rivals. Standing at 6-foot-4 and 175 pounds, he could be the top quarterback in the class when all is said and done. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/recruiting/2026/05/26/oregon-football-recruiting-josiah-boyd-visit/90255703007/Tue, 26 May 2026 17:32:05 +0000What Dan Lanning and Oregon position coaches have said about this year's transfer portal additionsOregon coach Dan Lanning and the team's position coaches have offered comment on each of this cycle's transfer portal additions this offseason.

Remember, the bag only moves after the first touch. While I agree with the announcers that there was some slight sound prior to the pop of ball in mitt, it was so lacking in the ring of contact that it could have equally been caused by the batter’s reactive motion. Just a gut-wrenching way to lose. Feel for the team. But, in the rear-view mirror now, and if the predicted regional odds pan out, this loss’s silver-lining might just end up being us going into a Westwood super regional with the chip on our shoulder rather than the other way around.Mon, 25 May 2026 00:07:10 +0000You 🤬 Up, You Trusted Us!Sun, 24 May 2026 23:33:12 +0000Thanks so much, Charles.

With the win, Oregon advances to the semifinals later today against two-seed Nebraska. Scolari (5-0) dominated from the start, striking out the side in the first inning. The Ducks’ starter finished with 10 strikeouts, one off his career high, in five innings of work. He finished his outing striking out Huskies’ two-hole hitter Braeden Terry to end the fifth with the bases loaded. Cal Scolari Twist took the ball out of the bullpen and proceeded to keep UW scoreless through the next three innings. He left the game with a 9-0 lead after retiring the first batter in the top of the ninth before giving up a base hit and a walk. After Twist departed, UW hit a grand slam to cut the lead to five. All five of Oregon’s home runs were solo shots, with back-to-back bombs in both the fifth and sixth innings. The Ducks scored a pair of runs in four different innings in the win. How It Happened: Oregon (39-15) took the early lead with a pair of runs in the second inning with the help of some free passes. Naulivou Lauaki Jr. led off the frame with a base hit and moved to second on a Jack Brooks hit-by-pitch and third on a Gabe Miranda pinch hit. With the bases loaded, Washington starter Noah Kenney walked Ryan Cooney and Angel Laya to force in Lauaki and Brooks to give UO a 2-0 lead. Oregon pushed the lead to three in the third. Lauaki hit an opposite field solo home run into the Huskies (24-32) bullpen. Naulivou Lauaki blasting his homer... In the fifth, the Ducks went back-to-back with solo home runs to lead off the inning. Drew Smith belted his 15th of the season, while Brayden Jaksa followed with his ninth. In the sixth, the bottom of the order got in on the long-ball parade. Eight-hole hitter Jack Brooks pulled one over the Huskies bullpen in the right-field corner before Miranda followed with one into the Huskies bullpen. Brooks’ homer was his sixth while Miranda belted his fifth. Box Score Notes: The two back-to-back home runs marked the first time in Charles Schwab Field history that one team has had a pair of back-to-back homers in the same game … Smith’s homer moved him into a tie for 10th on the single-season list at Oregon … It was also the 27th of his career, tying Guy Krause (1971-74) for sixth in the career list … Lauaki’s home run was his 11th, all coming since April 8 … The five home runs tied for the fourth most in program history … It was the first time Oregon hit five homers since May 31, 2025, vs. Cal Poly. Up next: Oregon will face Nebraska in the semifinals tonight.

Like theSat, 23 May 2026 21:10:15 +0000I wholeheartedly agree with you that greed is killing this game. Not sure its just playoff expansion. Unfortunately, ever since the BCS, the bowl system has been on the clock. Frankly, 34 bowl games is a joke to me. Why not play 78? So every team gets an extra week? Not to mention, the schools lose money: they have to guarantee ticket sales. Talk about grift! I really like 12 teams with play in options. Texas and ND deserved a shot at playing in the playoffs. Miami got the benefit of looking good early despite playing to the level of their competition all year (not my idea of rewarding a team that is supposed to be elite-elite teams dominate teams like Louisville and SMU-they're simply not equipped to handle the kind of talent Miami has). I believe the 24 team format forces the SEC to counter with a legit field, that determines who qualifies by how they play on the field and who they play on the field. Otherwise "F" it. If you're going to arbitrarily pick teams like Miami in 25' and some say Indiana (unjustly) in 24', just let the mediocre be fodder for blowouts and give the second level P4 teams a look at what they could be if they had the ability to compete against the real power in CFB. I simply cannot stand a South Carolina crying about their "lost opportunity"-only to lose in a bowl game. Make that kind of bubble team a play in entry level play in game. Keep the field at 12, and force the bubble teams into a mini playoff. Also, no 45 hundred day layoffs either. From Week 0 at the end of August until January 1, every week is showing college football. Army and Navy get their wonderful "nation watches their game" window, and then its on to the true best group of teams playing for a title (and frankly I believe only 8 get automatic slots and the other 8 are playing for 4 spots against numbers 5,6,7 and 8). The game needs a commissioner. Because the conferences, player reps(also know as unlicensed agents) and the TV execs are killing the game. Players are not students in the real sense, so scholarships must go. Contracts can include school as part of the compensation package-so we can weed out the dudes looking for a "bag of money" instead of truly representing Universities and Colleges. Let's call it what it is-professional football for 18-22 year-olds.Sat, 23 May 2026 01:10:42 +0000
