The recruiting dead period kicked off on Tuesday, meaning that programs can't make any face to face contact with recruits through the month of July. For the Oregon Ducks, the dead period's arrival marks the end of an exciting run as Dan Lanning and the coaching staff had an impressive Official Visit season.
Oregon continues to climb it's way up the recruiting class rankings, holding the Nation's 9th ranked class. If Dan Lanning is going to continue his streak of signing top 5 classes, Oregon is going to need to land some big time recruits, and the good news is that help appears to be on the way in the weeks to come.
Predicting the 5 upcoming commitments for the Oregon Ducks
Lex Mailangi - Offensive Line
The Oregon Ducks got the final visit with 3-star offensive lineman Lex Mailangi which gave the coaching staff a chance to make one last pitch before he enters decision mode. Considering that Mailangi will announce his commitment on Wednesday June 24th, right after his visit to Eugene, the Ducks have to love their prospects.
Xavier Sabb - Wide Receiver
The recruitment of Xavier Sabb no longer seems like a case of if he'll pick the Oregon Ducks, but when he'll announce his pick. The 5-star wide receiver took plenty of Official Visits, but Oregon got the final visit and has led for most of this recruitment. Sabb hasn't set a date for his announcement, but when he does pick it would be a stunner if he doesn't end up in Eugene.
Anthony Cartwright III - Tight End
On Sunday, the top uncommitted tight end recruit in the class will come off the board when Anthony Cartwright III announces his commitment. Oregon already has a tight end on board in George VanSandt, but to keep the tight end pipeline flowing, the Ducks will look to sign two high school recruits. The Ducks have seemingly pulled ahead of Michigan and Miami, and Sunday should see another 4-star recruit join this class.
Brayton Feister - Linebacker
Coming into the Summer, Ohio Native Brayton Feister looked like he could be the next recruit to jump on board. Instead, other schools like Georgia have shrunk the Ducks' presumed lead, creating a battle at the top. Oregon has remained in the battle for Feister, and he'd become the perfect final addition to a loaded linebacker haul.
Hayden Stepp - Defensive Back
When former Oregon commit Ai'King Hall flipped from the Ducks to Miami, it created a major need at cornerback in this class. While Hayden Stepp would've been a priority regardless, it only elevated the Ducks need to land a commitment. Oregon has battled with Alabama in this recruitment, and in the end it looks like Oregon should still end up with an elite cornerback recruit.
