A pair of four-star prospects and several Oregon commits stood out at the Ducks’ annual Saturday Night Live camp.
Four-star 2024 running back Jason Brown of Washington’s O’Dea High School and four-star 2025 cornerback Blake Woodby of St. Frances Academy in Baltimore each had strong showings among their respective position groups at Autzen Stadium.
The No. 11 running back in the class of 2024 in the 247Sports Composite, Brown is ranked the No. 2 player in Washington and long been considered among the top players in the region. He again showed the explosiveness and mobility that makes him a target for Oregon, Washington, Michigan State, Louisville, Alabama and USC among others.
Woodby has multiple interceptions and defended several wide receivers well, getting overly aggressive and holding at times, but was one of the best defenders in coverage during one-on-one matchups. He and St. Frances Academy teammate Kevyn Humes were among a talented group of cornerbacks that also included 2026 prossect Brandon Lockhart of Loyola High in Los Angeles and West Linn’s Josiah Molden, a 2027 prospect and Oregon legacy who already has a UO offer.
Ducks quarterback commit Michael Van Buren had a mixed showing, as several signal callers did. Van Buren made several nice throws and also had some errant ones.
Akili Smith Jr., a UO legacy, Malik Washington and Bear Bachmeier were among the 2025 QBs who took part. Unranked 2024 QB Ryder Hayes had several nice throws and committed to Oregon as a preferred walk-on later Saturday night.
Following the camp, 2025 four-star receiver Adrian Wilson flipped his commitment from TCU to Oregon, becoming the third member of UO’s 2025 class.
2026 receiver Jalen Lott of Lovejoy High in Lucas, Texas claimed the first offer following the camp. Lott already holds offers from Michigan, Missouri, Baylor, Ole Miss and TCU among others.
2024 safety Elyjah Gordon, who recently picked up offers from Auburn, USC and Georgia Tech, claimed an offer from UO as well.
2025 linebacker Marco Jones was an imposing figure among the defensive players in attendance and appeared to be well beyond his listed 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds.
Oregon’s other commits to take part in SNL were tight end AJ Pugliano, offensive linemen Trent Ferguson, Fox Crader and 2025 commit Chavez Thompson. Defensive commits included defensive linemen Xadavien Sims and Tionne Gray, outside linebacker Jaxson Jones and safety Aaron Flowers. Kicker Gage Hurych was among the specialists in attendance.
