Powerhouse Pipeline: Oregon's Recruitment of the Nation's Elite Schools

Tracking Oregon's Recruiting Progress with the Nation's Elite High Schools.

The Ducks currently hold the top spot in the Pac-12 recruiting rankings for the class of 2022, which is good for the No. 19 class nationally. 

It's no secret that Oregon can recruit with anyone in the country, but one thing that has been vital to Mario Cristobal's recruiting success in Eugene has been his ability to land elite talent from some of the country's top programs. 

Here is a comprehensive run down of where the Ducks stand with recruits from top programs, many of which have won national championships or are square in the conversation as some of the best high schools in the country year after year.

Note: each player listed holds an Oregon offer. Some players are committed to other schools, but that hasn't stopped the Ducks from landing them on signing day in the past.
