Oregon Transfer Portal Tracker: Who's in and who's out?

During his first year at the helm of the Oregon program, Dan Lanning struck gold via the transfer portal on a few occasions.

Quarterback Bo Nix delivered one of the best seasons by any quarterback in the country after transferring to Oregon from Auburn. Christian Gonzalez entrenched himself as a lockdown cornerback for the Ducks and is now being discussed as a potential first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Casey Rogers, Taki Taimani, Jordon Riley, and a handful of others made meaningful conversations after joining Oregon via the portal, too.

With the regular season now in the books, it’s going to be a busy month for Lanning and his staff in terms of both incoming and outgoing players. The transfer portal opens on Dec. 5, meaning all FBS players who have entered the portal can begin taking official visits.

In the days following Oregon’s regular-season finale, several Ducks announced their intention to enter the portal once it opens.

It’s worth noting that just because a player enters the portal doesn’t mean they have to leave their current program. It simply means other programs are allowed to contact them.

Here’s a rundown of which Ducks have expressed their intention to enter the portal ahead of Dec. 5. This list will be updated throughout the offseason to include all players who have left and joined Oregon by way of the transfer portal.
