Oregon gained a massive addition to its 2026 recruiting class on Wednesday with the commitment of Immanuel Iheanacho, a 5-star prospect ranked as the class’ No. 1 interior offensive lineman.
The 247Sports composite also ranks Iheanacho as the No. 8 overall player in the nation. The 6-foot-6, 345 tackle plays at Georgetown Preparatory School in Baltimore.
He made the announcement Wednesday on “The Pat McAfee Show” on ESPN. After he declared his choice, he unzipped his jacket to reveal an Oregon-green T-shirt that read, “The grass is damn green in Eugene.”
“Oregon just really felt right,” he told McAfee, citing the ability to play early in his career as a deciding factor in his choice.
He took official visits to Oregon, Penn State, Auburn and LSU in June.
Oregon also added offensive lineman Tommy Tofi from Archbishop Riordan in San Francisco to its 2026 class on Wednesday.
