The long-awaited official visit to Oregon for five-star offensive tackle Jackson Cantwell has concluded. The No. 1 prospect in the Rivals250 moved this official visit up when he changed his commitment date. He has since slid back his commitment day to May 13. But the Ducks made a big impression during the visit.

“The amount of time and effort they poured into me and the attention to detail stood out,” Cantwell said.

“They have a plan for me to develop and even to be a dual sport athlete at a high level too. They are heavily invested and think I could be the guy to get a lot of dominoes to fall in the 2026 class.”

It’s become more important as Cantwell’s recruitment has progressed for football programs to have a plan in place for him to also compete in track and field. He’s one of the best high school shot putters in the nation and wants to pursue it in college as well.

Spending more time in Eugene this weekend also helped him get more comfortable with the idea of playing his college football at Oregon.

“Yeah I mean I’m cool with going wherever as long as my family can come see me play,” Cantwell said. “I just think that I want to go wherever the best situation is.”

When assessing where the best situation is Cantwell does have a few things on his checklist. He’s looking for a strong offensive line coach that has some history of putting guys into the NFL. The relationship with the strength staff will also be important since he’d spend a lot of time with them.

Cantwell will now take an unofficial visit to Georgia on May 10 before announcing his commitment on May 13.
