Oregon Football - 2026 Transfer Portal

Looks like Devan Thompkins to Alabama

Despite nonsense about Oregon being a potential suitor for Alabama's QB Simpson, he's off to the NFL draft.

Perhaps Limar will play. Who ever would think we would be so lacking for players at RB? It is ridiculous, the portal and the NIL. Ridiculous.

He was listed as "Out" in the availability report yesterday.

Then that is that. He filled his niche very well. Dammit

Rumor in scoopduck, AJ Harris committed to UO

If so, that's probably our Jadon Canady/Daylen Austin replacement at nickel.

He's a freak, we need him.

Oregon appears to be lining up visits for Saturday after the team returns from Atlanta. Smith Snowden and Carter Vargas, maybe others.

Vargas committed to Cal. Probably got an offer to compete to start, while I doubt UO has many carry’s for him

Solomon Davis is now headed to San Diego State

It was already announced, but paperwork for Jay Harris is now in, so he's officially in the portal.

I'm really surprised by how quiet the Oregon portal is. I would normally say it's alright, we can flip guys before it closes, but the Demond Williams situation demonstrates that schools aren't playing around with these contracts once they're signed.

It makes sense though. We have two new coordinators going into next year and we're focused on playoffs. I'm sure it'll pick up after Friday.

That still doesn't compute for me. This is Marshall Malchow's job, so unless he's going somewhere else, we should still see the machine operating close to as-usual.

The portal open period is for declaring, a player can sign with a team after the portal closes. That’s my understanding from the CFB game day podcast the other day.

If a player has entered the portal and picks Oregon on January 18th, what happens to school? I can't imagine ADs continue to provide free education and expenses to athletes who have quit their team. The UO gonna pay for guys like Limar, Lopa, and Austin to continue to go to school for months after they have bailed? Makes little sense, why would other schools be doing it for guys who are now Oregon Ducks?

On January 18 it would be far too late to add Winter 2026 classes at the UO as it is long past the cutoff for students to add a class and be eligible for a grade this current term. Giving athletes passing grades for a term of classes they couldn't have properly attended would certainly be a new level of academic chicanery (I would hope isn't an actual thing). Do they drop out until the end of March and move home? Pay their own way until the end of March as a nonstudent hanging around the AD?

I imagine guys like Limar, Lopa, and Austin aren't enrolled at the UO anymore, and will have a class schedule by Monday if they are moving to a school on quarters or Jan. 20th if it is semesters. I don't see how all the UO transfers in aren't done by Monday 12, where they could at least properly give them a schedule of classes. The drop out until Spring might also possibly be a thing, but would certainly seem to disadvantage teams still playing (and basically all schools on quarters which I guess is actually only a small percentage, maybe 5% to 15%). I imagine a lot of athletes aren't going to prefer that. I'm looking and not sure what I might be missing here. It should be a busy weekend.

This is why the season needs to be done by January 1st or the week after.
