With one game remaining in the 2015 season, Oregon coach Mark Helfrich secured what might be one of his biggest wins of the 2016 season -- a commitment from Montana State quarterback Dakota Prukop.
Pending his GRE exam and admittance to Oregon, Prukop would be eligible to play immediately and hopes to enroll in classes in early January, giving himself eight months on campus before the Ducks’ first game of the 2016 season.
Prukop had suitors from Alabama, Texas and Michigan, among others. But he said it was Helfrich’s nature and the conversations they had this weekend while he was in Eugene that made him sure he wanted to commit to Oregon.
