Oregon Ducks Coach Dan Lanning Pursuing No. 1 Transfer Class: Targeting Offensive Tackle Isaiah World
Oregon Ducks coach Dan Lanning is making waves in the college football world, not just on the field but also in the transfer portal. Lanning is on track to secure his second consecutive No. 1 transfer class, with his latest target being former Nevada offensive tackle Isaiah World.
World, a 6-8, 320-pound lineman, is rated the No. 1 offensive tackle prospect in the transfer portal. He has garnered attention for his impressive pass-blocking skills, earning a grade of 82.2 from Pro Football Focus last season. Despite Nevada’s struggles on the field, World stood out as a key player, starting every game at left tackle and helping improve the team’s offensive performance.
Oregon’s pursuit of World is fueled by their success on the field and the opportunity for immediate playing time. With the departure of former offensive lineman JacQawn ‘Shaq’ McRoy, the Ducks are in need of a player with World’s size and experience. While Texas A&M and Nebraska are also in the running for World, Oregon’s winning culture and track record of developing talent give them a competitive edge.
The Ducks’ reputation for excellence on the offensive line, coupled with the potential for World to make an immediate impact, make Oregon an attractive destination for the talented lineman. As Oregon continues to build a strong offensive line unit, World could be the missing piece that propels them to even greater success in the future.
