  1. The connections between Nike and the Oregon Ducks are quite clear during this summer of sport.The Ducks are seemingly everywhere all at once, and so is Nike. The two brands are always connected, and the shared culture between Nike and Oregon especially resonates this summer. Oregon Ducks On SIHow Oregon's Culture Compares to Nike's Relentless SpiritBEAVERTON, Ore. — The Oregon Ducks are busy building for the 2026 season as the fifth year in the coach Dan Lanning era, and the upcoming fall is highlighted by
  2. Predicting Oregon's next 3 commitments after landing elite TE Anthony Cartwright IIIThe Oregon Ducks came into the Summer needing to go on a run on the recruiting trail if Dan Lanning was going to keep the streak of signing a top 5 ranked recruiting class alive. The coaching staff has used the string of official visits to quickly flip the narrative around this recruiting class, as Oregon is now up to 21 commitments. Sunday was another incredible day for the staff as Oregon picked up a commitment from 4-star TE Anthony Cartwright III. After landing Anthony Cartwright III, Oregon will quickly turn it's attention toward sealing other commitments. The start of July looks to be the most promising time for the program as the Ducks are trending for a trio of elite targets. Predicting the next 3 recruits to commit to OregonTae Walden Jr - CornerbackComing into the final weekend of Official Visits, it was exciting for Oregon to get Tae Walden Jr on campus, but it seemed like other schools were the clear front runner. Instead, Oregon didn't let the opportunity go to waste, and now, heading into Tae Walden Jr's announcement, it appears that Dan Lanning and the Ducks have the upper hand. It won't take long to see if Tae Walden is indeed heading to Eugene, as he'll announce his commitment on July 1st, which has the potential to be a massive day for the Ducks. Hayden Stepp - CornerbackEver since Ai'King Hall flipped to Miami and Donte Wright chose the Hurricanes over the Ducks, Hayden Stepp has been the clear top priority on the recruiting trail for Oregon. This Summer, Alabama seemed to have the lead for Hayden Stepp, but his official visit to Eugene seemingly turned the tides in favor of the Ducks. Stepp will be announcing his commitment on July 1st at the Rivals Summer Signing Day, event where everyone expects Oregon to seal the deal. Xavier Sabb - Wide ReceiverThe recruitment of Xavier Sabb has turned into a matter of when he'll commit to Oregon rather than if he'll pick the Ducks. While the two older Sabb brothers are currently playing for Kalen DeBoer at Alabama, Xavier Sabb is looking to pave his own path, and Oregon looks to be the team best positioned to land the commitment. Sabb hasn't set an official commitment date, but when he does announce, the Ducks will be picking up a 5-star recruit with an exciting chance to make an impact as soon as he lands in Eugene.

  4. Commit Impact: Anthony Cartwright Gives Oregon Another Big Piece at Tight EndOregon had been working this one for a long time. There are some recruitments that feel like opportunistic pushes, where the Ducks get involved, make a run and see if they can create enough movement to make things interesting. Anthony Cartwright III never really felt like that. Oregon treated the Detroit Country Day tight end like a priority from the early stages of the 2027 cycle, got him to Eugene for Junior Day, stayed involved through a competitive national recruitment and then had the final official visit before his decision. On Sunday, that work paid off.

  5. Oregon Ducks adorned by fans in Tokyo for football showcaseA video from the Ducks shows the players walking to the field amid cheering fans, with large crowds around and many people wearing Oregon jerseys and green-and-yellow shirts. There are big cheers after big plays, and afterward, players and coaches signed autographs for fans. It was then that we heard one of the best recruiting pitches that the Ducks can take from this entire trip. It comes from a fan wearing a No. 5 "Grateful Ducks" autographed jersey and saying, "Dante Moore: famous in the states, famous in Japan." https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/06/27/oregon-football-tokyo-fan-support/90722568007/

  10. For Oregon, the new eligibility model does not kill development. It kills the fiction that development can stay hidden forever. As I have been writing scouting reports this recruiting cycle, I have found myself coming back to the same words over and over again. Upside. Projection. Frame. Tools. Development. Patience. Those words show up in almost every recruiting class, but they are especially common when talking about offensive linemen. That has been true again with some of the players Oregon has pursued in the 2027 cycle, and it stood out to me for one specific reason: Oregon did not just sign a good offensive line class in 2026. It signed an elite one. That matters because when a program stacks talent at the same position in back-to-back cycles, the conversation changes. It is no longer just about who is talented enough to play at Oregon. It is about who is talented enough, patient enough and developmentally aligned enough to survive the wait.

  14. We are getting closer and closer to the new EA Sports College Football 27 video game being released, and the past week has seen ratings and numbers come out for the top teams and top players in the game.The Oregon Ducks have been released as the No. 1 overall team on the platform, with the best defense and second-best offense in the game, while quarterback Dante Moore takes the crown as the No. 1-ranked passer, and Jamari Johnson is questionably ranked as the No. 3 TE in the game. As we move to the defensive side of the ball and focus on the defensive line ratings, it's clear that the Ducks have one of the best units in the nation. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/06/25/oregon-football-cfb27-defensive-line-ratings/90691594007/ Brandon Finney, Koi Perich ranked among top DBs in EA Sports CFB27 https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/06/25/oregon-football-finney-perich-ea-sports-cfb27/90691310007/

The Ducks have posted an opening for a Director of Player Development, Recruiting and External Relations, a newly created role that reflects how quickly the demands around roster building have changed in college athletics. The title is not general manager, but many of the duties attached to it mirror the kind of work more programs are carving out in an effort to keep up with the transfer portal, NIL and the growing complexity of roster management. According to Oregon's job posting, the position will be responsible for several major areas within the program, including player development and student-athlete experience, monitoring and evaluating players in the NCAA Transfer Portal, alumni and donor relations, and scouting, game preparation and film review. https://247sports.com/college/oregon/article/oregon-basketball-looking-to-hire-front-office-style-staffer-amid-changing-college-sports-landscape-287953398/

  22. Predicting Oregon's next 5 commitments as Official Visit season endsLex Mailangi - Offensive LineThe Oregon Ducks got the final visit with 3-star offensive lineman Lex Mailangiwhich gave the coaching staff a chance to make one last pitch before he enters decision mode. Considering that Mailangi will announce his commitment on Wednesday June 24th, right after his visit to Eugene, the Ducks have to love their prospects. Xavier Sabb - Wide ReceiverThe recruitment of Xavier Sabb no longer seems like a case of if he'll pick the Oregon Ducks, but when he'll announce his pick. The 5-star wide receiver took plenty of Official Visits, but Oregon got the final visit and has led for most of this recruitment. Sabb hasn't set a date for his announcement, but when he does pick it would be a stunner if he doesn't end up in Eugene. Anthony Cartwright III - Tight EndOn Sunday, the top uncommitted tight end recruit in the class will come off the board when Anthony Cartwright III announces his commitment. Oregon already has a tight end on board in George VanSandt, but to keep the tight end pipeline flowing, the Ducks will look to sign two high school recruits. The Ducks have seemingly pulled ahead of Michigan and Miami, and Sunday should see another 4-star recruit join this class. Brayton Feister - LinebackerComing into the Summer, Ohio Native Brayton Feister looked like he could be the next recruit to jump on board. Instead, other schools like Georgia have shrunk the Ducks' presumed lead, creating a battle at the top. Oregon has remained in the battle for Feister, and he'd become the perfect final addition to a loaded linebacker haul. Hayden Stepp - Defensive BackWhen former Oregon commit Ai'King Hall flipped from the Ducks to Miami, it created a major need at cornerback in this class. While Hayden Stepp would've been a priority regardless, it only elevated the Ducks need to land a commitment. Oregon has battled with Alabama in this recruitment, and in the end it looks like Oregon should still end up with an elite cornerback recruit.
