Dan Lanning has made more history at Oregon. This time on the recruiting front as Oregon signs its best class in program history. And not just committed, they are signed, it’s done.

Of course there will be a very small amount of movement in January. Most of the commits or signings will be for teams outside/below the top 15-20 filling roster spots. Dan Lanning doesn’t have that issue. In fact, he has spots he needs to create.

With the bulk of the heavy lifting now complete let’s take a look at a few superlatives from this signed prep class. Prep means I won’t be including any of the current transfer commits.

Offense vs Defense:

14 of the signed 2024 recruits are on defense. Which means there are 12 on offense. The specialists were not included among the scholarship players.

Average Distance:

The average distance of the signees from home to Eugene is 930.8 miles.

Covering the Map:

Oregon signed recruits from 11 different states in 2024.

Reaching for the Stars:

Using the On3 Industry rankings, Oregon has 19 commits ranked four stars or better.

Rankings Galore:

Oregon ranks as the No. 3 class nationally and No. 1 class in the B1G rankings with On3.

Biggest Groups:

Oregon signed five recruits at defensive back and defensive line.

Taking No. 1

Oregon signed the No. 1 ranked player from the state of Arizona (Rushing) and Washington. (Platt)

Defense at the Top

Four of the top five signees play on the defensive side of the ball.

Who Started it All

In-state and legacy tight end A.J. Pugliano was Oregon’s first commit to sign, October 24, 2022.

Average Position Ranking

Averaging all 26 signees and their On3 Industry Rankings, the average position ranking comes out to 28.

Less Than a Point

Oregon finished less than a point away from Alabama and it’s No. 2 ranked class.

Jump Start

Oregon already has four commits in the 2025 class and the No. 3 ranked class currently.
