If the foundation of an elite program is elite talent, then the Oregon football program under Mario Cristobal is on solid ground.
The Ducks are on track for the best recruiting class in school history after adding 20 players Wednesday, the first day of college football's recently implemented early signing period. Two years after signing the first consensus top-10 class ever at Oregon, Cristobal and his staff are on track to raise the bar with a class that some consider among the top five in the country.
The end goal is to compete for national championships with the likes of Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State.
