The Oregon Ducks’ recruiting efforts are in full swing as they aim to build on their No. 1 class in 2026. Dorian Barney, a highly-touted four-star cornerback recruit from Georgia, has named Oregon as one of his top choices among a list of 12 elite football programs. Barney, who is ranked nationally as the No. 8 cornerback and the No. 74 prospect in his class, has yet to visit Oregon but plans to schedule visits to all of his top choices in the coming weeks.
Barney emphasized the importance of relationships with coaches and the program’s culture in his decision-making process. He hopes to make his decision by July and mentioned that previous visits to schools like Texas A&M, Penn State, Georgia Tech, and Michigan have influenced his current preferences.
For Oregon, securing a commitment from Barney would bolster their defensive lineup, as they currently do not have any cornerback commits in the class of 2026. The Ducks have already secured commitments from defensive linemen and a linebacker in the same class, showing their commitment to building a strong defensive unit for the future.
With Barney’s decision looming, college football fans will be eagerly awaiting news of where this talented cornerback prospect will choose to continue his career. Stay tuned for updates as Barney narrows down his list and makes his final decision.
