4-star Target LB chooses Texas A&M

4-star Target LB chooses Texas A&M

A weekend full of wins saw Dan Lanning and company finally fall short in a recruiting battle.

Four-star linebacker Noah Mikhail made his college decision Sunday afternoon. California’s 2025 prospect fell to three finalists: Oregon, USC and Texas A&M.

Mikhail visited Eugene in June. He also visited USC (June 7) and Texas A&M (June 21). Ultimately, he decided to go with the Aggies.

Mikhail plays for Bonita in La Verne, California. According to the 247Sports Composite, the 6-foot-3, 225-pound prospect is the No. 69 player in the country and the No. 8 linebacker.

Lanning and the Ducks coaching staff have had a busy weekend. On Friday, four-star running back Jordon Davison and four-star defensive lineman Josiah Sharma committed to Oregon, while on Saturday five-star cornerback Dorian Brew and four-star tight end Da’Saahn Brame did the same.

The Ducks have 14 commitments right now, with a pair of five-stars and 11 four-stars, according to the 247Sports Composite. That’s good for No. 5 in the nation.
