Oregon Secures 4-Star Edge Rusher Prince Tavizon Commitment

Prince Tavizon, a highly ranked four-star edge rusher from Lincoln High School in San Diego, has officially committed to the Oregon Ducks for the 2027 recruiting class, becoming Oregon's first commitment for that cycle. Tavizon chose Oregon over other notable programs including USC, Texas, Notre Dame, and Texas A&M, citing the welcoming atmosphere and close relationships with coaches Dan Lanning and Tosh Lupoi as key factors. At 6-foot-3 and 245 pounds, Tavizon is ranked among the top edge defenders nationally and has impressed with his on-field production, including 13 sacks and 90 tackles as a sophomore. His commitment boosts Oregon's 2027 recruiting class to the No. 13 spot nationally, and he is part of a growing pipeline from Lincoln High School, which has also produced quarterback Akili Smith Jr. and cornerback Jahlil Florence for Oregon. The Ducks anticipate further momentum in recruiting as several high-profile prospects plan visits, potentially elevating their standing in the 2026 and 2027 rankings.
