Noah Sewell, junior college transfers make immediate impacts
The top class in the Pac-12 and No. 12 ranked group nationally, Oregon’s 2020 recruiting class got immediate contributions from its two junior college transfers, T.J. Bass and Bennett Williams, and middle linebacker Noah Sewell. Injuries to Justin Flowe and Dontae Manning, the group’s other two major headliners, prevented even more significant immediate impacts from freshmen, which otherwise came from Kris Hutson, Jared Greenfield and Bradyn Swinson.
Overwhelmingly the group didn’t see much action in 2020 due to the shortened season and chaotic offseason but with the core of the class coming on the offensive and defensive lines, the outlook was always in the long-term with an eye to 2022-23.
