The Oregon Ducks have had a phenomenal summer when it comes to recruiting and the Class of 2017 could add another key piece to the puzzle for Brady Hoke. Elijah Molden announced his Top 4 on Twitter. I find it interesting that all the teams are in the Pac-12 Conference, but the Ducks are up there with USC, Stanford and Washington who are all vying for his services.
According to 247Sports, Molden, from West Linn High School in Oregon is a 4-Star Corner. He is seen as the second best in the State of Oregon and 23rd at his position.
I have decided to narrow my list to 4 schools. I now look forward to West Linn's 2016 season. God bless. #LionPride pic.twitter.com/nMhMn746QF

If Molden decides Oregon is where he wants to be, it will be a loaded 4-Star Defense in 2017, and he could lead the way to early playing time in Hoke’s 4-3 Defense. He would be the fifth Defensive Recruit as Hoke continues his Recruiting Full Court Press this summer to bring his style of players to Autzen Stadium.
