No. 1 EDGE in 2025 class puts Ducks among top schools

The Ducks made the cut for 5-star Zion Grady, the No. 1 EDGE in the 2025 class.

The Oregon Ducks are looking to get a strong start on the 2025 recruiting class by adding one of the best defenders in the nation.

Over the weekend, 5-star edge-rusher Zion Grady announced his top schools, including the Ducks in the mix alongside Georgia, Alabama, Michigan, USC, and several others.

Grady, an Alabama native, is rated by 247Sports as the No. 1 EDGE in 2025, and the No. 7 overall player. He received an offer from Oregon back in May of 2023, but has not yet taken a visit out to Eugene.

The Ducks were in line to land 5-star Elijah Rushing, the No. 1 EDGE in the 2024 class, but he wound up committing to the Arizona Wildcats instead. It’s clear that head coach Dan Lanning and his staff have been good at recruiting edge rushers, but we will hope they land the plane with this one.
