Thanksgiving is all about being grateful for what you have while stuffing your face with as many carbs as possible. Ducks famously don’t even bother to chew their food, and yesterday, Oregon stayed true to their mascot by snarfing down three big commitments:
Judson (Texas) DL Johnny Bowens
The main course for the Ducks’ holiday feast was getting Bowens (6-foot-3, 265 pounds), who is ranked No. 41 among all defensive linemen in his class. He had offers from 10 other programs, including Texas A&M, Baylor, LSU, Oklahoma and Miami.
Roman Catholic (Pa.) WR Tyseer Denmark
Oregon also got a top-notch ’24 receiver in Denmark (5-foot-11, 180 pounds), who is ranked No. 14 at his position in his class and second in Pennsylvania. In six games this year, he posted 35 catches, 665 yards and seven touchdowns. Denmark also doubles as a free safety.
Lakeland (Fla.) iOL Gernorris Wilson
Wilson (6-foot-5, 285 pounds) is a three-star guard who’s ranked No. 75 among interior linemen in the 2023 class. It appears Wilson wanted a change of scenery, as he picked Oregon over 18 other offers, mostly from schools on the east coast.
The Ducks are now ranked No. 11 in the 2023 recruiting cycle.
