USC offensive lineman Emmanuel Pregnon announced his transfer to the Ducks on Tuesday morning. Pregnon was rated the top interior lineman in the portal by multiple recruiting services and picked Oregon after heavy pursuit from Texas.

The Oregon Ducks have landed offensive lineman Emmanuel Pregnon out of the transfer portal. The former USC Trojans starter was considering Oregon as well as the Texas Longhorns and Tennessee Volunteers.

Pregnon will compete with Dave Iuli and Kawika Rogers for the starting left guard spot, joining former Nevada OT Isaiah World and former Texas State OT Alex Harkey as transfer portal additions who are expected to start for Oregon in 2025.

It may have seemed as if the Oregon Ducks were wrapping things up in the winter window of the transfer portal after adding eight potential starters to the roster throughout the month of December and early January,
