Not only did the Oregon Ducks get a dynamic up-and-coming head coach when hiring Dan Lanning from the Georgia Bulldogs this last offseason, but they also got one of the best recruiters in the south to bring his talents to the pacific northwest.

Lanning’s overhaul of the Oregon staff and decision to fill out the ranks with elite recruiters has paid dividends so far, especially when it comes to players from SEC country. It seems that now more than ever, the Ducks are making the cut for a number of highly-rated players from states like Georgia, Alabama, and Florida, all of whom are considering a trip to Oregon to join what Lanning is building.

The latest player to make this consideration is 5-star defensive lineman Vic Burley, a 6-foot-5, 276-pound player from Warner Robins, GA. Burley is listed by 247Sports as the No. 4 DL in the 2023 class, and No. 35 player overall.

He recently included the Ducks in his top-12 going into the spring, and will hopefully take a trip out to Eugene at some point this year to check out the facilities.
