Oregon's Transfer Portal Boost: A New Tight End Commitment
Oregon's football program has just landed a significant transfer portal addition, as Dan Lanning secured a commitment from tight end Andrew Olesh. This move comes after a challenging recruitment process last year, where Oregon faced stiff competition from Penn State for the Southern Lehigh (Pa.) standout.
The 6-foot-5, 230-pound Olesh, who entered the transfer portal after just one season with the Nittany Lions, is now headed to Eugene. Despite not recording any stats as a true freshman, his potential and the need for depth at the tight end position make him a valuable addition to the Ducks.
Oregon fans are eagerly awaiting news from star tight end Kenyon Sadiq, while also celebrating the return of Jamari Johnson. With the addition of Olesh, the Ducks gain a quality depth option as he continues to develop his skills. Furthermore, the program will soon welcome five-star tight end Kendre Harrison, who signed as part of the 2026 class and has already been participating in practices.
This strategic move by Lanning strengthens Oregon's tight end position and provides a boost to the team's overall depth, showcasing the program's ability to attract top talent through the transfer portal.
