Oregon Recruiting Rolls On with Top Tight End CommitmentOregon Recruiting Rolls On with Top Tight End Commitment Oregon’s recruiting momentum continued Saturday morning with the commitment of highly touted Derby (Kan.) tight end DaSaahn Brame. The four-star recruit, ranked 98th overall and third at his position according to the On3 Industry Ranking, spurned Tennessee to become the sixth addition to Oregon’s 2023 class. Brame’s commitment elevates Oregon to the fifth-ranked class in the nation, according to the On3 industry team recruitment rankings. “It’s the players there. Definitely the offense they run, I think I fit their offense more than I fit Tennessee’s offense,” Brame explained. Ducks Secure Top Targets on Both Sides of the Line Brame’s commitment is part of a trifecta of top recruits that have committed to Oregon in the last 24 hours. Sacramento Folsom defensive lineman Josia Sharma, ranked in the top 100 by On3, chose the Ducks over Texas on Friday. Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei running back Jordan Davison, the 96th-ranked overall prospect, quickly followed suit. Davison praised Oregon’s consistent recruitment style and genuine care for him and his family. Class Highlights Dallas Wilson, a five-star wide receiver from Tampa Bay Tech, currently leads the recruiting class as a top-30 prospect overall. Akili Smith Jr., a four-star quarterback from San Diego (Calif.), Lincoln, and Nasir Wyatt, a four-star linebacker from Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei, are among the other top-175 recruits who have committed to Oregon. Other commitments include Isaiah Moses, a four-star receiver from Lee’s Summit (Mo.) North; Matthew Johnson, a four-star defensive lineman from Concord (Calif.) De La Salle; and Cooper Perry, a four-star receiver from Scottsdale (Ariz.) Notre Dame Prep.

Oregon stayed on the recruiting trail Saturday morning when it received a commitment from Derby (Kan.) four-star tight end DaSaahn Brame.
The Ducks defeated Tennessee this month for commitment No. 6. Brame is now the third top-100 commit in the mix Dan Lanning and co. as he checks in at No. 98 overall and No. 3 at the TE position in the On3 Industry Ranking.
With a commitment from Brame, the Ducks have moved up one spot and now hold the fifth division of the country, according to the On3 industry team recruitment rankingsAfter finishing No. 3 in the class last cycle, Oregon is on track to finish in a similar position in December.
“It’s the players there. Definitely the offense they run, I think I fit their offense more than I fit Tennessee’s offense,” Brame said of his decision, per Chad Simmons of On3. “That’s a really big thing for me, just the commitment the players and the coaches have to make each other better. They all have the same mentality, they’re trying to win a national championship.”
Oregon now has 13 commits in its class. Only Ohio State, Alabama, LSU and Georgia check in ahead of the new Big Ten schedule, starting June 29.
Ducks land top targets on both sides of the ball

Mater Dei four-star running back Jordan Davison. Davison is the No. 96 overall prospect and No. 5 RB in the On3 Industry Ranking.
“They show a lot of love, you know?” Davison told On3. They’re very consistent in how they’ve recruited me. I wouldn’t even say they’ve recruited me. They just build relationships and they really care about me and they continue to be a part of me and my family.”
