Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks’ coaching staff was busy over the past week.

While the week days were filled with flights across the country and a number of in-home visits with both 2023 and 2024 prospects, the weekend saw a huge flock of potential Ducks come to Eugene for Oregon’s unofficial Junior Day.

There is one week left before the final signing day of the 2023 cycle, and we could see Oregon add more players to the roster. Upwards of 20 high school prospects and a couple of transfer portal players were in Eugene. According to reactions on social media, it looks like things went well. Here are some of the top recruit reactions from the weekend.
