Ducks become heavy favorites to land top-uncommitted RB in 2024 class

The Ducks are now heavy favorites to land the top-uncommited RB in the 2024 class.

It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster when it comes to the recruiting predictions for 4-star running back Jason Brown, the No. 2 rated player from the state of Washington.

Originially, the Washington product was favored to pick the hometown Washington Huskies, but earlier this summer, some predictions came in for Brown — a 4-star player rated as the No. 113 overall prospect in the 2024 class, and the No. 6 overall RB — to land with the Michigan State Spartans.

However, after taking a visit to Oregon over the weekend for their demolition of the Colorado Buffaloes, Brown is now being predicted to land with Dan Lanning and the Ducks.

On Wednesday, a pair of Crystal Ball predictions came in from 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong and Brandon Huffman for Brown to land in Eugene. There is not yet any word on when Brown will make his commitment, but things are looking good for the Ducks at the moment.

Currently, Oregon has the No. 12 recruiting class in 2024, with 3-star RB Da’Jaun Riggs being the only other player at that position in this class.

Scott Eklund — who is a Washington recruiting insider — is now projecting Michigan State to land four-star running Jason Brown of Seattle. This is a significant projection since the Huskies are one of the top competitors for the Spartans in the pursuit for Brown.

Brown is down to three finalists of Michigan State, Oregon and Washington. Right now, everything is pointing towards the Spartans so let’s hope they can close the deal and add this elite running back to their 2024 class.

Michigan State football featured in top 3 for 4-star running back

The Spartans have made the cut for a 2024 4-star RB prospect:

While Michigan State’s recruiting board is not very big at the moment, there are still some major prospects still on the board. One of those huge prospects is Jason Brown, a 4-star running back from Seattle.

Brown is currently ranked as the No. 113 overall player and No. 6 RB in the nation according to 247Sports. The highly touted 4-star prospect plays his high school football at O’Dea High School in Seattle.

Brown has cut his list down to 3 schools, with a decision likely coming before the end of the month. The Spartans have made the cut alongside Oregon and Washington.

As of now, Michigan State holds all of the predictions across various recruiting networks, but sources tell SpartansWire that no decision has been made yet and there is a battle heading to the finish line.

4-star RB Jason Brown puts Ducks among top schools

4-star RB Jason Brown puts Ducks among top schools

Since coming to Eugene, Oregon Ducks running back coach Carlos Locklyn has done a great job of bringing in highly talented ball carriers. With the commitment of Jordan James in 2022, plus the additions of both Dante Dowdell and Jayden Limar in 2023, Oregon’s RB recruiting has been stellar. When you also add in transfers from Bucky Irving and Noah Whittington, it’s hard to argue against anything Locklyn has been doing.

It appears that the Ducks are in the mix to add another elite RB as well. On Thursday afternoon, 4-star RB Jason Brown announced his top schools, including the Ducks alongside both the Washington Huskies and Michigan State Spartans.

Brown is rated as the No. 113 overall player in the 2024 class and the No. 6 RB. On top of that, he is rated as the No. 2 overall player in the state of Washington.

Brown has taken several visits to Oregon over the last year, and he is arguably among the top recruits left on the board for the Ducks.

Oregon doesn’t yet have an RB committed to the 2024 class, so the potential addition of Brown would be notable.

No. 2 RB in 2024 Jason Brown to visit Oregon Ducks this weekend

Jason Brown, the No. 1 player in WA and No. 2 RB in the 2024 class, will be taking a visit to Eugene over the weekend.

The Oregon Ducks are making some waves on the recruiting trail as the 2023 cycle starts to come to a close, and while there are a number of prospects that we are keeping an eye on in the current class, one of the top players in the 2024 class has plans to head south to Eugene this coming weekend.

4-star RB Jason Brown, the No. 2 RB in the 2024 class, has confirmed to me that he will be taking an unofficial visit to Oregon over the weekend to check out the Ducks.

Brown stands at 5-foot-10, 195 pounds, and is rated as the No. 1 overall player from the state of Washington, and No. 30 overall player in the nation.

At the moment, there are a pair of Crystal Ball Predictions for Brown to stay home and commit to the Washington Huskies. However, both of those predictions were logged back in April of 2021. It’s safe to say that a lot has changed in his recruitment since then, and the Ducks have a chance to get an early foot in the door for one of the best rushers in the nation.
