Will Mencl Could Be Oregon's Freshman QB | Oregon Ducks Football News

Oregon’s future at quarterback just got a seismic boost with the rise of Will Mencl, the nation’s top QB recruit and 13th-best player overall. After torching his high school team for four TDs in a 42-10 win, Mencl’s dual-threat game—arm like a cannon, legs that make plays—has everyone buzzing. With Dante Moore likely leaving for the NFL, Mencl could be the first true freshman QB to start under Dan Lanning, breaking a trend that’s lasted since Lanning took over. Now, with Mencl joining Dylan Raiola, Brock Thomas, and Akili Smith Jr. in the QB race, Oregon’s recruiting machine is poised to deliver its most explosive quarterback competition yet—and this one might just begin with a freshman starter.
