Oregon Ducks Eyeing USC Commit Danny Lang

Oregon continues its pursuit of four-star cornerback Danny Lang, a top-ranked prospect who verbally committed to USC. Lang, standing at 5-foot-11 and weighing 160 pounds, is recognized as the No. 10 cornerback nationally. His junior year statistics included 31 total tackles and 10 passes defended.

USC's aggressive late recruiting push, emphasizing relationships with coaches like Trovon Reed and Gary Patterson, and the benefit of staying close to home, ultimately swayed Lang. This late surge overcame Oregon's initial perceived lead.

Despite the commitment, Oregon remains optimistic about flipping Lang, a strategy that has worked for them previously. The Ducks are banking on their strong program resume, recent College Football Playoff appearances, and a track record of developing defensive backs for the NFL.

With over a year until National Signing Day, Oregon plans to leverage continued relationship-building and potential game-day visits to sway Lang. The Ducks aim to capitalize on any struggles USC might face, highlighting their own sustained success as a premier defensive program.
