Huge recruiting weekend for Oregon


This will be a big weekend for Oregon sports any way you slice it. The No. 5 Oregon basketball team will be opening their season against Army on Friday night, then the Ducks take on Stanford on Saturday afternoon in football. Off the field there will be plenty of action as well as both sports are hosting some key recruits.

Duck Sports Authority has confirmed with each of the following prospects that he plans to be in Eugene this weekend.

“They are very high on my list,” Andrus told DSA last summer. “They have a good chance. I am going to give them a real look.”


"I'm going to take all my visits and make sure which place I want to be for the next four years."


“Oregon and TCU I'm for sure taking my officials there. It’s just the relationships I have with those coaches.”


“They (Oregon) don’t just need one of us, they need both of us. Everything that they could do right they did. Basically, they played their cards right as much as possible,” Graham told Duck Sports Authority of his unofficial visit with Oregon commit Jaylon Redd.

Oregon commit who will be traveling to Eugene once again with his friend and teammate Graham. Will the third time be the charm for the Ducks as they would love to land both Rancho stars.


“I think Oregon is an amazing program and they are rebuilding,’ Habibi-Likio told DSA before heading to Eugene. “I’m really excited to visit and I think I can contribute there.”

Though committed to Virginia Tech, the high three-star dual threat confirmed this weekend's visit and told Duck Sports Authority "I am very excited about the trip."

The Nashville DT, though committed to the Ducks, scared many fans with his visit to Michigan last weekend. This will be Oregon's chance to remind him why he committed in the first place.

Thompson confirmed with DSA his trip and expressed his excitement.

“I love the way their offensive scheme works against teams. The coaches have told me they love my hand skills and speed and size.”

Key football unofficials

Basketball

Brandon McCoy is the only known officially visiting basketball player. But how does it get any bigger than him? With one spot left in the Ducks' recruiting class, McCoy would be the icing on an already sweet cake.


DSA spoke with Norris during the week and although he will obviously not be an official visitor, you would be hard-pressed to find a bigger unofficial. One of the top power forwards in next year's class, Norris will be in Eugene Friday on his own dime.

“I'm going to be up there Friday and this weekend. I know Oregon has a great program and a pretty good team this year.”
