Oregon Ducks Set to Host 5-Star Tight End Prospect Linkon Cure
The Oregon Ducks are gearing up for a pivotal recruiting visit next weekend, as five-star tight end prospect Linkon Cure is set to return to Eugene. Cure, who is currently committed to Kansas State, has been a top target for the Ducks, and this visit could be a crucial step in flipping his commitment.
Cure, a 6-foot-6, 220-pound tight end, has been praised for his athleticism, playmaking ability, and strong multi-sport athletic profile. He has been compared to Sam LaPorta, a talented tight end prospect, and has been touted as having high-round NFL Draft upside.
The Ducks have already made a strong impression on Cure, who has spoken highly of the program and its coaching staff. “Everything stands out about Oregon for me,” he said. “What is there not to love, honestly? It’s a great route for me personally for a multitude of reasons.”
Cure’s visit next weekend will coincide with the Ducks’ game against Washington, and he will be joined by another top tight end prospect, Andrew Olesh, who is currently committed to Michigan. The Ducks are looking to close out their recruiting class with a strong finish, and landing one or both of these top prospects would be a major coup.
