It’s always a big deal when you get a commitment from a blue-chip recruit, but it becomes even more special when it comes from the son of an Oregon Ducks legend.
Four-star athlete Sam Ngata announced his commitment to the Ducks on Saturday afternoon. Ngata is the son of Oregon State legend Haloti Ngata, who was recently inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. Sam is ranked No. 274 overall in the Class of 2027 and No. 12 nationally in ATH.
