Kayvon Thibodeaux, nation's No. 1 prospect, set for Oregon Ducks official visit

The Oregon Ducks football program has a 21-man 2019 recruiting class that currently ranks among the nation's best.

But Mario Cristobal and his coaching staff would love to add an unquestionable headliner to its collection of talent, and will have a chance next weekend.

On Sunday, 247Sports five-star defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux, the nation's No. 1 overall prospect, solidified his previous plans to take an official visit to Oregon next weekend with a tweet:

Oregon see you Saturday[?] [?] [?]

The 6-foot-5, 239-pound defensive end, out of Oaks Christian High School (Thousand Oaks, California), has long considered the Ducks a serious contender.
