Oregon Ducks Commits Move in Updated Recruiting Rankings

EUGENE, Ore. — Oregon’s 2027 recruiting class received a fresh jolt of national attention Tuesday when 247Sports released its updated Top247 rankings, with all five of the Ducks’ current verbal pledges slotted among the nation’s best.

Offensive tackle Drew Fielder headlines the group at No. 81 overall. The 6-foot-6 Servite (Calif.) standout, who also attracted serious interest from Arizona, Arizona State and BYU, will be back on campus May 29 for an official visit with head coach Dan Lanning and offensive line coach A’lique Terry.

Running back CaDarius McMiller posted the biggest jump, vaulting 193 spots to No. 218 after a junior season that saw him rack up 939 rushing yards and 20 total touchdowns while averaging 8.7 yards per carry for Tyler (Texas) High School. The four-star speedster also owns a 10.59-second personal best in the 100 meters.

Thompson (Ala.) High School EDGE Cameron Pritchett checks in at No. 136. Pritchett, who pledged to the Ducks last June 2 over offers from Florida State, USC and Baylor, has collected 15.5 sacks and 210 tackles—55 solo as a junior—through three varsity seasons.

Turlock (Calif.) offensive tackle Avery Michael, another 6-6 bookend, is rated No. 415 with an 89 grade from 247Sports. Michael recently picked the Ducks after adding late offers from LSU and Vanderbilt.

Rounding out the commit list is three-star linebacker Sam Ngata, No. 814 nationally with an 84 rating. The 6-3 Olympus (Utah) product and son of former Oregon fan-favorite Haloti Ngata chose the Ducks over Nebraska, Michigan and BYU.

With the early-cycle momentum in hand, Lanning and his staff will look to keep climbing the team recruiting boards as evaluation season intensifies.
