4-star linebacker from Texas includes Oregon Ducks in top-12

The Oregon Ducks are squarely in the mix when it comes to the recruitment of 4-star Texas linebacker Derion Gullette.

Over the last several years since the Oregon Ducks stepped up their recruiting efforts in the southern portion of the United States, and particularly in the state of Texas, we’ve seen a decently-sized pipeline of talent coming up to the Pacific Northwest.

That doesn’t look to be changing under Dan Lanning and the new coaching staff.

This past week, one of the best linebackers in the state of Texas, 4-star Derion Gullette, announced his top-12 list of schools and feature the Oregon Ducks prominently in the mix.

Gullette stands at 6-foot-2, 220 pounds and is ranked by 247Sports as the No. 26 EDGE and No. 225 player overall in the 2023 class.

According to 247Sports, Gullette also played some WR in high school, and had over 1,000 yards and 14 touchdowns receiving in 2021. The Ducks just recently offered him earlier this year, so while we haven’t seen him hosted on a visit just yet, that is likely to come at some point in the next several months.
