My Next Five Recruits to Commit to Oregon in the 2025 Class
It's been a quiet month on the recruiting trail for Oregon. Well, it's been quiet for the Ducks and the rest of college football since we're in a dead period.
2025 Concord (Calif.) De La Salle EDGE Matthew Johnson was the most recent recruit to join the Ducks, committing earlier this month after a trip to Eugene for Junior Day. Today I'm weighing in on who I think could be the next five recruits to commit to Oregon, with all players coming from the 2025 class.
1. WR Cooper Perry (Scottsdale, AZ)
Perry is a guy that's been on Oregon's radar for a long time. He's the number one ranked player in Arizona, and this staff has taken a keen interest in the best to come out of the state, signing players like Elijah Rushing, A'Mauri Washington and My'Keil Gardner under Dan Lanning.
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Notre Dame Prep standout is close friends with early enrollee quarterback Luke Moga, and this coaching/recruiting staff has done a great job developing strong connections with Perry and his family. Oklahoma is another school to watch in this recruitment, but I think he'll be a Duck when all is said and done.
2. TE Da'Saahn Brame (Derby, KS)
Brame was one of numerous blue-chip recruits that made his way out to Eugene for a Junior Day visit last month. The Kansas product included Oregon in his top schools back in December and I've continued to hear great things about where the Ducks stand.
It is a bit puzzling that we haven't seen any new developments in his recruitment lately, as I was expecting a commitment to come at some point last month. Dan Lanning and Will Stein went out to see him during the contact period and hosted him on a visit.
That's not to say that that should result in a commitment, but everything I was hearing seemed like it would indicate he was closing in on a decision. I still feel solid about Oregon's chances, but this could be one worth watching closely.
3. EDGE Nasir Wyatt (Santa Ana, CA)
I've been writing about Wyatt for months and placed what I'm confident was the first Oregon prediction for him back in November. He told me last month that Nick Saban's retirement and the subsequent coaching carousel that followed was a reset of sorts for him, but the Ducks should still be viewed as the team to beat here, and I don't think it's particularly close.
He wants to take some official visits before committing, but the coaching staff has put in a ton of work here and he seems enamored with the idea of playing for Tosh Lupoi and Dan Lanning, so I wouldn't be surprised he moves up his timeline.
4. DL Trajen Odom (Matthews, NC)
Odom was only offered by the Ducks last month but he quickly scheduled his first trip to Eugene after multiple in-person visits from the coaching staff. He's a clear priority for the Ducks seeing that the defensive line talent isn't as strong out West as it was in 2024.
Odom is originally from Inglewood, California, which gives the Ducks an edge here. His family is from Southern California and Oregon is an easy commute that would make it easy for them to see games. There's more at play than just that of course, but the Ducks crushed his visit and I view them as a clear leader that can outlast post-visit glow.
5. S Jadyn Hudson (Pittsburg, CA)
I know I'm not leading the charge in Hudson to Oregon here, but this pick just makes too much sense to me. I think back to what Dylan Williams told me after he committed: "If you want to play defense out West you go to Oregon."
Bay Area native Tosh Lupoi is a big player in this recruitment and will have the Ducks in contention for one of the best in Northern California. Hudson has had great things to say about Oregon in his recruitment and I bet he'd like to follow in the footsteps of Jevon Holland, one of the best safeties in the league that also got his start in the Bay Area before playing for Oregon.
Bonus
WR Isaiah Mozee (Lee's Summit, MO)
Mozee is another recruit I like Oregon for in the 2025 class in what's shaping up to be another stacked haul for Junior Adams at wide receiver. Dan Lanning has a long-standing relationship with Mozee after coaching with his father back in the day, which should give them a leg up here.
Oregon is also producing wideouts at a higher clip than in years past with Troy Franklin being mocked in the first round of this year's draft, which is another factor that helps the Ducks. He wants to make his decision before his senior season starts and I'd wager he'll be back in Eugene before then.
