2026 3-star Honolulu (HI) Farrington interior offensive lineman Koloi Keli has flipped his commitment from the California Golden Bears to the Oregon Ducks. He announced his decision over social media following an official visit with the Ducks last weekend. (June 20)

Coming out of that trip, it was clear that Dan Lanning, A’lique Terry and the rest of the coaching staff had moved the needle with Keli, who originally committed to Cal on June 8 following an official visit out to Berkeley.

“It was actually great out there. Seeing what they’re building over there, and seeing how they develop their players,” Keli told ScoopDuck following the visit. “With Coach (A’lique) Terry and how he develops the offensive linemen, it’s a very unique way how he does it. Also with the relationship the whole team has with each other, the bonds. Not only them, just doing everything for football, but it’s also how they revolve around each other and how they connect with each other. So that really did stand out for me out there in Oregon.”

The newest Duck landed his Oregon offer on May 16, as Terry made the trip out to Hawaii to see him.

Keli is the No. 1048 player nationally, the No. 103 interior offensive lineman and the No. 6 prospect in Hawaii according to the On3 Industry Ranking.

The mauler is the first offensive lineman to commit to Oregon this cycle since Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei offensive tackle Kodi Greene, who went on to flip to Washington in the spring.

Keli continues Oregon’s growing pipeline to Hawaii, and follows in the footsteps of close friend Iapani ‘Poncho’ Laloulu, Oregon’s starting Center who also played his high school football at Farrington.
