RECRUITING NOTES:

As we head into the month of June, it won’t just be the weather in the Willamette Valley that heats up – so too will Oregon recruiting as the Ducks host a bevy of visitors on official visits throughout the month. There will be two big weekends (June 16, June 23) that will really stand out.

Today on the Inside Read, we will start to take a look at some of the visitors scheduled to be on campus in Eugene.

June 2-4

· First up will be four-star edge rusher, Elijah Rushing. The No. 53 rated player in the nation has been on campus several times before and is very comfortable with this staff; but this will be an official visit and there will be a lot that goes into his visit. As of now, he is the only scheduled visit for that weekend, so he will get plenty of one-on-one time with the coaches. The Ducks are in a good position with Rushing, but I would not call them a lock at this point. There will be a lot of teams that make a harder push down the stretch so this will be a critical visit for the Ducks.

June 9-11

· This weekend sees two official visitors, the first being tight end Ryner Swanson. The No. 9 ranked tight end and four-start tight end from Laguna Beach is a little closer to the vest here. I know he really likes Oregon and Texas has also made a strong push. I also think that Utah and BYU are not really out of this. Swanson has been to Eugene before, and the Ducks are definitely in need of multiple tight ends this class and really like Swanson’s game and his skill set. Will the Ducks take a third in this cycle? That remains to be seen.

· The other visitor on this weekend is interior offensive lineman Devin Brooks from Clackamas (OR) High School. The Ducks really like Brooks and feel like he I a perfect fit for this offense and he really likes Oregon. Clearly he has been to Eugene many times, but an official visit just has a different feel. I do believe he will ultimately be a Duck.

June 16-18

The Ducks will be hosting many recruits this week and the following week. For now, I will give the list of known visitors and then make some general comments about each weekend, getting more in-depth as we approach each of these weekends.








June 16-18

This is the big weekend for the Ducks. As with the other weekend, I will start with those not yet committed and then list the committed players.
