Five-star safety Trey McNutt is predicted to commit to the Oregon Ducks for the 2025 football recruiting cycle, with a 68.8 percent likelihood according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine. Ohio State and USC are also in the running for McNutt, but Oregon seems to be the frontrunner after a recent official visit left him impressed with head coach Dan Lanning and the program’s energy and potential for greatness.
McNutt, a top safety recruit in the country, is highly sought after by both Oregon and Ohio State. His father, a former player on Ohio State’s national championship team, has also played a role in his recruitment process.
With 61 stops, three tackles for loss, 12 pass breakups, and two forced fumbles in his last season at Shaker Heights, McNutt is a standout defensive player with potential on offense as well. He is ranked as a consensus five-star prospect by 247Sports and a four-star prospect by ESPN, Rivals, and On3 Sports.
Oregon currently stands at No. 7 in the national college football recruiting rankings for 2025, with commitments from top players like four-star wide receiver Dallas Wilson and four-star quarterback Akili Smith, Jr. The Ducks’ strong recruiting class is further bolstered by the potential addition of McNutt, who would be a valuable asset to the team’s defense.
