4-star wide receiver Mycah Pittman is set to announce in the next week or so, and if he goes with the Ducks, that puts the class at 15, with 11 (11!) 4-stars.

Last year Oregon got about 5 commitments out of their Saturday Night Live event.

It looks like the number of available scholarships for the 2019 class right now is 19 by my quick count. Ordinary attrition might add 3-4 more by the February traditional signing day.

I like the idea of the Ducks completing or nearly completing their class before the start of fall practice. It frees the coaches to focus on maintaining those relationships, applying some energy to 2020 and 2021, setting up official visits, and of course, coaching up the 2018 football team.

It puts a little positive pressure on kids who are on the fence and fiddling with their latest top five to claim a spot.

Meanwhile, there are a handful of interested players you find room for no matter what.
