Oregon just landed yet again another four-star verbal commitment in the 2021 recruiting class, this time coming from four-star cornerback Jaylin Davies out of Southern California's Mater Dei high school. If that school is familiar, it's because it's become somewhat of a feeder program for the Ducks with Davies' teammates like Kyron Ware-Hudson in 2021 or from the 2019 class in Sean Dollars and Mase Funa.
National Recruiting Analyst Greg Biggins of 247Sports come on the Autzen Audibles Podcast to discuss the latest commitment for the Ducks.
- What led to Oregon landing this commitment?
- Rod Chances' work with Davies got the Ducks back into that top four a few weeks or months back now. How did that happen?
Davies joining Oregon's recruiting class puts the Ducks at 14 total commitments and a projected team score of 237.79. That would place Oregon sixth in the country, one spot higher than they were before this commitment. They are now less than 8 points away from fifth place USC, a trend we've been tracking the last few weeks now.
- Does Davies impact any other recruits in your eyes to look towards Oregon because of this commitment?
- Your thoughts on Oregon's class as a whole with 14 verbal commitments, 1 five-star commit, nine four-star commits, and just four three-star commits.
Jaylin Davies is now the program's seventh-best cornerback to commit to the Oregon football program in its history, slotting just above former Duck and four-star Dior Mathis. Davies is also the eighth-best defensive back prospect to commit to Oregon in its' history, according to our 247Sports All-Time commit history. Just above Davies is current Oregon safety and former four-star and All-American Bowl participant Steve Stephens.
- What type of player is Oregon getting in Jaylin Davies?
- Is it safe to assume Davies comes into the program and contends right away with Mykael Wright, Dontae Manning and the current group of CBs to replace Thomas Graham and Deommodore Lenoir?
