Multiple predictions drop for Oregon Ducks to land No. 1 TE in 2026 class

The Oregon Ducks are now the heavy favorites to land 5-star tight end Kendre Harrison after a pair of predictions fell on Monday night.

Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks are working to put the finishing touches on the 2025 recruiting class before the early signing period gets underway in less than a month, but that doesn’t mean they can’t make waves in the 2026 class as well.

The Ducks already have the No. 1 class in the 2026 cycle, headlined by players like Tradarian Ball, Jonas Williams, and Kodi Greene, but on Monday afternoon, they picked up a pair of predictions to land one of the best overall players in the nation.

According to On3’s Steve Wiltfong and 247Sports’ Tom Loy, the Ducks are now favored to land 5-star tight end Kendre Harrison, the No. 9 player in the nation, and No. 1 tight end in 2026.

Harrison is a massive prospect, standing at 6-foot-7, 243 pounds. He was in Eugene earlier this year for the Saturday Night Live camp in August and left as one of the standout players to take the field at Autzen Stadium.

Harrison announced on Monday that he would be making his commitment official on November 30 of this year, which led to both Wiltfong and Loy making their predictions.

We will have to wait a couple of weeks before finding out if Oregon can add this incredibly gifted pass-catcher to the class of 2026, but early signs are positive, for sure.
