With the biggest game in Autzen Stadium history on tap, Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks brought in a long list of blue-chip recruits to check out the atmosphere and see what the program in the Pacific Northwest was about.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that we’re seeing the start of a recruiting boom take place after Oregon took down Ohio State, 32-31 in front of said recruits.
While the Ducks already have a pair of commitments that came following the victory, they’ve now picked up a massive prediction to land 4-star linebacker Talanoa Ili, one of the best players in the 2026 class.

Ili is rated by 247Sports as the No. 28 player in the 2026 class, and the No. 3 LB in the nation.
On Tuesday, 247 Sports analyst Tom Loy placed a Crystal Ball prediction for Ili to commit to the Ducks, where he would join the No. 1 recruiting class in the 2026 cycle.
The Ducks are currently recruiting against Ohio State, Oklahoma, and USC to land Ili, but they are obviously in a good spot for his commitment.
