As of 9 a.m. Wednesday morning on the first day of the Early Signing Period, Oregon has the No. 2 class in the nation according to the 247 Sports Composite, No. 1 in average ranking per recruit with four five-star commitments.

They notched up two more spots after the surprise signing this morning of two defensive backs, Azel Banag and Trevon Watson.

Banag is Oregon's first flip of this signing day, previously committed to Harvard, a program first in that respect. He's a three-star prospect ranked No. 769 in the Composite, 5-11.5, 170. His father is a former South Carolina linebacker and defensive back.
