Legacy Quarterback Set for Oregon Visit
One of the early fan favorites for Duck fans is from the 2025 recruiting class. But the name is oh-so-familiar for Duck fans already.
Lincoln (Calif.) quarterback Akili Smith Jr. is the son of former Oregon quarterback Akili Smith. The 6-foot-5, 200-pounder is one of the top early quarterbacks in his 2025 class. Currently Smith is the nation’s No. 70 ranked player and No. 5 ranked quarterback in his class per the On3 Industry Ranking.
Smith announced he will be at the Oregon Spring game this weekend as the star-studded list continues to grow daily.
