Four-Star RB Jayden Limar flips from Notre Dame to Oregon

Four-star running back Jayden Limar flipped his commitment from Notre Dame to Oregon Wednesday afternoon.

The 5-foot-11, 190 pounder had been committed to the Fighting Irish since May.

Limar on why he chose Oregon

“Honestly the family atmosphere and their constant pursuit of recruiting stood out the most,” Limar said. “Coach Lock always preaches that he cares about the relationship side of football more than the football and that truly showed. On top of that, I have an amazing relationship with coach Lanning and even more importantly, it’s a very easy trip for my family to make and family is everything to me.”

Relationship with coaching staff stood out 

“I am closest with coach Locklyn and coach Dan,” Limar said. “They plan on using me as a all purpose back than can line up in the backfield and also out of it.”

The Washington running back joins coach Lanning and the Ducks’ Top 8 class in the 2023 team rankings. He is accompanied by Peyton Bowen, Matayo Uiagalelei, and others.

Limar ranks as the No. 281 player in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that accounts for all four major recruiting sites. He also tabs in as the No. 19 running back and the No. 3 player in the state of Washington.
