Oregon's top recruit in the 2026 recruiting class is reportedly locked in. Kendre Harrison, an elite tight end and two-sport athlete that also dominates on the basketball court, is fully committed to the Ducks. 

Still with about nine months to go until early signing day, Harrison has reportedly shut down his recruitment, and is fully committed to Oregon.

"What's understood don't have to be explained. I'M HOME. SCO DUCKS," Harrison told Hayes Fawcett of On3.

The 6'6" 250 lbs tight end is the top tight end in the country, and has the possibility to be a massive weapon for the Oregon offense for years to come, especially in an offense that enjoys utilizing the tight end position on a variety of routes, both down the field and on screens at the line of scrimmage. 

Harrison is the headliner in what is currently the top recruiting class in the country, with the Ducks battling for the top spot with USC. Dan Lanning has been linked to some of the top prospects in the country, like the No. 1 overall player, offensive lineman Jackson Cantwell and a slew of others. 

Lanning is aiming to get another elite recruiting class across the finish line, with a big spring and summer of recruiting and official visits ahead. A year after landing the nation's No. 1 wide receiver in Dakorien Moore, seemingly having Harrison locked in and ready to join the flock has Oregon building quite a unit of top-end playmakers.
