Oregon Ducks Score Big: QB Bryson Beaver Ditches Boise State!

Bowling Green, USA - The Oregon Ducks are intensifying their recruiting game, having recently offered a scholarship to Bryson Beaver, a three-star quarterback who had previously committed to Boise State. This strategic move signals a competitive rivalry, especially considering Oregon’s recent victory against Boise State, where they won a thrilling match 37-34 at Autzen Stadium last season. Following the Ducks’ offer, Beaver took to social media to announce his decommitment from Boise State, opening the door to new opportunities as he looks to find the right fit for his football career. As reported by SI.com, he’s from Vista Murrieta High School in Murrieta, California, and boasts impressive stats: 229 completions out of 345 attempts, totaling 3,214 passing yards along with 33 touchdowns and just 6 interceptions during his last season.

Beaver is well-regarded in the football community, earning a spot as an Elite 11 Finalist, which places him among the top high school quarterbacks in the nation. Coaches from prominent programs are taking notice; even Ohio State’s Billy Fessler paid him a visit, highlighting his rising profile. This interest reflects the Ducks‘ plans to broaden their quarterback pipeline, a shift from their earlier focus on landing five-star recruits. Beaver’s decision to decommit from Boise State, a program that has historically developed standout quarterbacks like Kellen Moore, could pose significant challenges for the Broncos, especially after losing another commitment in March. As detailed by College Football Network, Beaver is the only other quarterback in Boise State’s 2026 class, which ranks 71st nationally according to 247Sports.

Ducks’ Recruiting Strategies

The Ducks have been proactive in their recruiting strategies under coach Dan Lanning, especially after missing out on five-star quarterback Jared Curtis, who chose Georgia. Beyond Beaver, the Ducks are securing top-notch talent for their upcoming classes, including five-star wide receiver Dakorien Moore and a highly rated tight end, Kendre Harrison, in their 2026 class, as noted by 247Sports. Their fresh approach includes a mix of established players alongside promising underclassmen.

As the Ducks gear up for their season opener against Montana State on August 30, all eyes will be on how this recruiting landscape shifts as potential stars like Bryson Beaver navigate their decisions. Oregon’s offer has placed them at the forefront of Beaver’s recruiting journey, indicating that the competitive spirit within the college football realm is fiercer than ever.
