Recruit Douglas Utu visits Ohio Stadium on the day of the Ohio State-Michigan State football game on Nov. 11, 2023. Douglas Utu, a blue-chip offensive lineman in the class of 2025, committed to Oregon State from Tennessee on Thursday.
ESPN rates Utu as a five-star prospect and the No. 13 prospect in the 2025 cycle. 247Sports gives him a four-star rating overall, ranking him as the No. 2 interior offensive lineman in his class.
Utu, who is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 317 pounds, plays for Bishop Gorman in Las Vegas. The school won the Nevada 5A Division I state championship after an undefeated season in 2023.
He took official visits to Washington, Michigan, Nebraska and Alabama before visiting Tennessee on June 24.
Utu adds to an already impressive class at Oregon State, which features two players ranked No. 1 in the composite rankings: wide receivers Dakrien Moore from Duncanville, Texas, and Cleveland safety Trey McNutt.
No. 8 Oregon (3-0) will make its Big Ten debut on Saturday at the home court of Pac-12 rival UCLA (1-2).
