Oregon Lands Two Big Commitments, Football + Recruiting Mailbag

Episode Summary

On the latest episode of the Ducks Dish Podcast we break down a couple of big commitments for the Ducks on the recruiting trail. 2023 linebacker Jerry Mixon out of San Francisco committed to Dan Lanning, while 2023 five-star forward Mookie Cook re-committed to Dana Altman and the Ducks. Mixon's commitment comes at a position of need in this class. He projects as a versatile linebacker than can stop the run and drop back in coverage, something the Ducks definitely need. His commitment is Oregon's third of the month after landing DL Terrance Green and DL My'Keil Gardner. Cook's commitment isn't a big surprise, but it's interesting to see the dynamic at play here since the Ducks just added Kwame Evans Jr. 10 days prior. It confirms a very common saying, good players want to play with good players. Dana Altman continues to push ahead on the recruiting trail with the top class in the Pac-12, ranked No. 6 overall, and he may not be done this cycle.
