The Oregon Ducks must have shown J.T. Tuimoloau something that he liked on his official visit this past week.
According to 247 Sports, the nation’s No. 1 prospect has cancelled his recruiting visit with the Alabama Crimson Tide after visiting Eugene, and is now choosing to focus on the four schools he has visited: Oregon, Ohio State, USC, and Washington.
Tuimoloau, a 6-foot-4, 275 pound defensive lineman, is from the state of Washington, and has risen to the ranks of the top recruits in the entire nation. A player of that stature would seemingly fit well in the culture that Nick Saban has crafted at Bama, but Tuimoloau decided to pass.
We are unsure when a commitment might come, but once he chooses a school, Tuimoloau will be ready to enroll this fall and hit the ground running. Please let that be in Eugene.
