Oregon Ducks land commitment Texas State OT Alex Harkey

The Oregon Ducks landed a commitment from former Texas State Bobcasts OT Alex Harkey, the No. 6 OT in the transfer portal.

Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks woke up on Wednesday and decided that they were going to make a splash in the transfer portal world.

In a matter of minutes, the Ducks landed commitments from both Louisville Cardinals TE Jamari Johnson, and Texas State Bobcats OT Alex Harkey.

Harkey is a massive addition for this offensive line that is in need of a tackle this offseason with Ajani Cornelius graduating. There is a good chance that the Ducks need a second tackle as well, with the expected need to replace Josh Conerly, who many believe will go off to the NFL Draft after this season.

Harkey was rated as the No. 6 OT in the transfer portal, according to On3, and he brings a big 6-foot-6, 305-pound frame with him to Eugene. Harkey will have one year of eligibility remaining when he arrives with the Ducks.

Oregon is also in a good spot to land former Nevada OT Isaiah World, who is in Eugene right now for a visit. He is the No. 1 ranked OT in the transfer portal this year, and is currently in Eugene on a visit.

With the additions of Johnson and Harkey, the Ducks are now up to four transfer portal additions this year.

Oregon Ducks extend offer to transfer portal OT from Texas State

In an attempt to shore up offensive line depth for 2025, the Ducks have extended an offer to former Texas State OT Alex Harkey.

When it comes to incoming players via the transfer portal, Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks rarely miss.

The Ducks are looking for more offensive line depth in 2025 and they’ve reportedly extended an offer to former Texas State lineman Alex Harkey.

At 6-foot-6 and 325 pounds, Harkey started at right guard for the Bobcats this season, and the team finished 7-5. They’ll be going into the First Responders Bowl against North Texas without him.

Harkey started out with the Colorado Buffaloes but transferred out after Deion Sanders was hired as head coach. He was part of the mass exodus of that program after the transition. In his first season at Texas State, Harkey played his just a handful of games, but in his junior year, he ended his time at Texas State as a Third-Team All-Sun Belt Conference selection.

Oregon has great depth at offensive line, but there could be a some spots available as the transfer portal has opened up and Josh Conerly, Jr. has to decide whether to come back to Oregon for his senior season or move on to the NFL.

What uniform number each of Colorado’s incoming transfers will wear in 2022

We’ve got uniform numbers for Colorado’s incoming transfer players

The Colorado Buffaloes saw a lot of players leave for other programs this offseason. However, they did land a solid group of talented players via the transfer portal. Baylor wide receiver RJ Sneed is the best of the bunch, and he should see a flurry of targets with Brenden Rice out of the picture.

While Karl Dorrell’s team isn’t expected to make much noise in 2022, the Buffs are getting better and might just surprise people this season.

With the season a month away, let’s examine the new transfer players and see what numbers they will be rocking in Boulder this season (h/t Adam Munstersteiger of 247Sports).
