Arkansas safety and 2020 SEC first team DB entered the transfer portal in the last week. He has missed two seasons with a shoulder injury, but when healthy, he is an elite safety.

He is originally from Mansfield, Texas, and I know that Powledge has a good relationship there and Oregon would absolutely love to look at him as an option moving forward.

PEYTON BOWEN IS PRETTY COOL

He or his agent...

The wild recruiting saga of four-star safety Peyton Bowen came to an end Thursday when he signed with Oklahoma on Thursday, one day after he flipped his commitment from Notre Dame to Oregon. Bowen had been a longtime Irish commitment before his stunning flip to the Ducks on National Signing Day. But Bowen wasn't done and flipped again Thursday when he made the announcement that he will join coach Brent Venables' Sooners in a post on Twitter.

"As I reflect on yesterday's whirlwind, I recognize that I made some mistakes that I regret and will learn from," he wrote. "Navigating this process has been a rollercoaster. With that being said, I also know that I was blessed to be in the position to consider multiple wonderful universities as I continue my football career.

"Soon after choosing Oregon yesterday morning, I came to the realization that the direction was not the best path for me. I immediately started to rethink my future."

Bowen also offered an apology to Notre Dame and Oregon.

"Oregon and Notre Dame faithful, I am sorry for how I handled this process," he wrote. "Changing my decision on Signing Day, the hat pump fake, all of it could have been handled better. I can't change what I did, but this experience is something that I will learn from."

QUAAAACK: Oregon lands its latest 4-star for 2024

Two-way athlete Jordan Anderson has announced his commitment to Oregon today becoming the third four-star recruit to give the Ducks his pledge in the class. Anderson is a top-65 prospect overall from California who could legitimately play on either side of the ball in college. He's expected to come in as a receiver for the Ducks, however. I watched him a few times this season and he was impressive in each game. He's liked the Ducks for a long time and yesterday's explosion on signing day pushed things over the top for him.

Post Signing Day Thoughts: Part One

The sheer volume of commits makes doing this with one article very cumbersome, so I split it into two parts with second one coming tomorrow. This one starts at the top of the class from a rankings perspective and works its way down the list (mostly, with some exceptions) based on rankings. I will have the second half up tomorrow and will try to have a post with some other stuff later in the day tomorrow.

K, LS PWO?

I assume both are pwo's, especially with total scholarships above 90 at the moment. Not listed on rivals list but got same treatment as rest of the guys on GoDucks. On a separate note, I thought it was interesting that Lanning brought up how none of last year's freshmen have entered the portal. Does that mean that the rest of the subtractions will be from seniors not returning and others he didn't recruit?
