Four-star edge rusher Tobi Haastrup has officially committed to and signed with the Oregon Ducks. The talented defensive prospect, a standout from Gardena, California, had a highly anticipated recruitment process, with top programs vying for his signature. Haastrup, known for his explosive athleticism and ability to disrupt opposing quarterbacks, chose Oregon for its strong football program, coaching staff, and its commitment to developing defensive talent.
At 6-foot-5 and 230 pounds, Haastrup brings a combination of size, speed, and versatility that makes him a dangerous edge rusher. He had a standout high school career, showcasing his ability to get to the quarterback and make plays behind the line of scrimmage. His high motor and relentless pursuit are qualities that stood out to Oregon’s coaching staff, and they see him as a perfect fit for their defensive scheme.
The Ducks, who have been building a strong defensive line under head coach Dan Lanning, are excited to add Haastrup to their roster. His commitment is seen as a significant boost to Oregon’s recruiting class, which already includes several high-profile players. The Ducks’ defense, which has been one of the strengths of the team in recent years, will benefit from Haastrup’s skills in both pass rush and run defense.
Haastrup’s decision to join Oregon also reflects the Ducks’ growing national appeal as a destination for top-tier talent. With their emphasis on player development and the opportunity to compete at the highest level, Haastrup is poised to make an immediate impact in Eugene. His signing is a key addition to a program on the rise in the Pac-12 and on the national stage.
