2019 Center Francis Okoro Commits to Oregon

Posted May 15, 2018
It can be difficult to get players out of the Midwest, but on Monday the Oregon Ducks were able to do just that when they landed center Francis Okoro. Okoro was down to Oregon, Purdue and Illinois, however it was the Ducks who won out. Oregon made Okoro a priority in recent months, and an official visit to Eugene was huge in being able to seal the deal with him. (247 Sports)
