Oregon Ducks pick up predictions to land No. 1-ranked QB in 2027 classWhile Oregon has done just fine at the position, led by elite transfers like Bo Nix, Dillon Gabriel, and Dante Moore, it appears they've now set their sights on a high school prospect they're shoving all their chips on. That prospect is 5-star quarterback Will Mencl, the No. 1-rated QB in the 2027 class, per On3. This past week, the Ducks picked up multiple predictions that they will land a commitment from Mencl, who will officially announce his college destination on Wednesday night. On Monday, On3's Greg Biggins placed a prediction for Mencl to pick Oregon, and the 247Sports Recruiting Staff placed a similar projection on Tuesday morning. Mencl will choose between Oregon, the Penn State Nittany Lions, and the Auburn Tigers. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/recruiting/2026/04/21/oregon-football-will-mencl-prediction/89718195007/

Oregon DC Chris Hampton lays out expectations for spring game defense“I just want to see us go out there and play fast," Oregon defensive coordinator Chris Hampton said on Monday. "Go out there and play fast, play physical, play the way that we've been coached to play. Don't do anything crazy, anything that you didn’t do in practice. You know, don't do it now, because there's a crowd out there." The crowd should help elevate the intensity for the Ducks, who have played a handful of closed scrimmages thus far this spring. Oregon has a great reputation for fan turnout at spring games, routinely filling Autzen Stadium and bringing in 30,000-50,000 patrons for the event. While this level of attendance can bring out some of the beneficial nerves for players and get them used to the eyes being on them, it can also bring out some of the fun of the day. "You want to see guys go out there and just play fast, play physical, and honestly, have fun," Hampton said. "You know, this game is fun, and we talk about that, and we want the guys to go out there and enjoy the moment and embrace it.” https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/04/21/oregon-football-spring-game-expectations-defense/89707783007/

The rule change to punt formations was merely a footnote. Now, it’s a full-blown controversy. After the NCAA’s Division I Football Bowl Subdivision Oversight Committee on March 19 adopted what the special teams community has called a “drastic rule change,” the measure that restricts player movement for “two adjacent linemen on either side of the snapper” faced objections from coaches. However, those objections didn't stop the NCAA football rules subcommittee from upholding the change in a call held Thursday, April 9, a person with knowledge of the vote told USA TODAY Sports. “We didn’t have a chance for answers,” a current Power conference special teams coordinator from a College Football Playoff participant told USA TODAY Sports. “Some people basically were already done with spring football when this was passed. “I can’t do it or teach it in the summer, because that’s cheating and then I’d get fired.” https://trojanswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2026/04/09/why-ncaa-new-punt-rule-change-has-college-football-coaches-fuming-special-teams/89525109007/
