Oregon 2025 class isn't done yet, but currently they sit at #5 in the 247Sports team rankings with just 20 commits. Even with Dallas Wilson going to Florida, Oregon still holds the highest average rating per commit in 2025. It's still early, but Oregon's 2026 is currently ranked #1 with 10 commits. The 2026 class has a very good chance of being even better than the 2025 class. Here's the latest intel on numerous Oregon targets.
2025's
4-star LB McKay Madsen
Madsen is set to commit January 11th at the Navy All American Game and Oregon is the heavy favorite. He is expected to take a two year mission before joining the team of his choice.
4-star OT Chaston Brown
Oregon is in contact with Brown and he is thinking about taking a visit, but as far as I know nothing is set in stone yet.
2026's
5-star QB Jared Curtis
Oregon already has Jonas Williams in the fold but Oregon might start regularly taking two quarterbacks each cycle. Curtis named Oregon is leader a couple months ago but this recruitment still has ways to go. He is still expected to take a lot of visits before committing again.
5-star QB Ryder Lyons
At one point Oregon looked be at the top for Lyons, but Oregon has faded in recent months. To my eyes it looks like Oregon is recruiting Curtis harder than Lyons. I expect Lyons to commit to USC at some point.
4-star DB Davon Benjamin
Oregon has been setting the pace in this recruitments for months now. He is still expected to take visits but Oregon is at the top right now.
5-star TE Brock Harris
Oregon already has a 5-star tight end committed so it will be interesting if Oregon takes two. I think Harris is the type of player you don't turn away. He's been on campus numerous times and Oregon seems to have the edge over Georgia right now. But again, he's still expected to take more visits.
5-star EDGE Zion Elee
Elee shocked everyone by randomly committing to Maryland. He's from Maryland, but at the time, Oregon was the team leading the charge. I think it's safe to say Elee will not stick with Maryland, and Oregon is absolutely the biggest threat to flip him.
5-star CB Elbert Hill
Hill has visited Oregon multiple times already and Oregon is near the top. Ohio State is absolutely Oregon's biggest threat, but we saw Oregon get Trey McNutt out of their backyard, and they can absolutely do the same with Hill.
4-star ATH Salesi Moa
Moa hasn't visited Oregon yet but he's planning to make it out at some point. Right now I think A&M and Utah are the two in front.
