Influential Oregon Transfers

With the off season coming to a close we take a look at a few high profile transfers within Oregon. Most of the indivuduals referenced below will rank among the state's best for their class.       *NO PARTICULAR ORDER         [player_tooltip player_id='279169' first='Dexter' last='Foster'] 6-4 210 OLB 24' Central Catholic- The 2x 1st team All PIL defensive standout made the move from Roosevelt, to go compete for a state title at CC. It's hard to blame him with the PIL in shambles. Roughriders coach Ryan McCants is one of the best in the state in my opinion but even that wasn't enough.    [player_tooltip player_id='285857' first='Nolan' last='Keeney'] 6-5 200 QB 25' Tualatin- This move is big with Keeney ranking as one of the top players in the state for the 2025 class. The T-Wolves have been spoiled on the QB front with Idaho commit Jack Wagner and POY Jackson Jones leading the team the last few seasons. Keeney transferring from Westview keeps Tualatin listed as a preseason top 5 program.    [player_tooltip player_id='769915' first='Noah' last='Tishendorf'] 6-3 225 OLB/RB 26' Lakeridge- Not a lot of people are aware yet with Tishendorf only being a freshman last season, but the transfer from Sherwood is one of the top 26's in Oregon and a huge loss for the Bowmen. There is still a lot yet to be determined but I would expect coach of the year candidate Spencer Phillips to have Noah in the mix on both sides of the ball as a sophomore.    [player_tooltip player_id='285876' first='Kameron' last='Rague'] 6-1 185 ATH 25' South Medford- Oregon's 3A Player of the Year was dominant as a sophomore and would likely go unchallenged if he continued playing at that classification level. Rague will project as an all-state Safety/ATH at South and likely be one of the top players in SWC and maybe 6A this season.    [player_tooltip player_id='488914' first='Andre' last='Miller'] 6-1 175 ATH 24' Nelson- The 3* DB is one of the most versatile kids in the state, earning 1st team DB and 2nd team WR accolades at Gresham last season. The Hawks graduate a plethora of talent on the perimeter, with Womack transferring as well, so Miller will be a key target for top 2025 QB [player_tooltip player_id='285852' first='Avirey' last='Durdahl'].   [player_tooltip player_id='408638' first='Brody' last='Borrevik']  6-2 220 OLB 25' Sheldon- The talented incoming junior has legit size and will make the move from 4A Marist where he earned 1st team all-conference honors as a sophomore. This is big for the Irish who graduate one of their more talented classes ever. We will find out quickly how Borrevik fares at the 6A level.    [player_tooltip player_id='597348' first='Athan' last='Palmateer'] 6-2 195 QB 24' Sprague- Palmateer had a phenomenal off season and made the move back to South from Sprague after originally being there. He's a great kid who will likely project as a conference & state statistical leader. The biggest question is whether or not the Saxons can hang with any of Oregon's top 6A programs.    [player_tooltip player_id='154326' first='Luke' last='Womack'] 6-4 200 WR/S 24' Lakeridge- Speaking of impressive off seasons. The Overall PRZ Showcase MVP impressed enough to earn an offer from D1 Georgia Southern. He brings elite versatility to the Pacers roster after making the transfer from Nelson HS. He earned honorable mention all-conference honors on both sides of the ball last year, finishing tied for 2nd in INTS at the 6A level.    [player_tooltip player_id='274319' first='Luke' last='Baker'] 5-11 180 QB 25' Clackamas- Baker made what I would call a smart move, transferring back to his home school from Central Catholic. Playing behind 2x Mt Hood POY [player_tooltip player_id='152354' first='Cru' last='Newman'] you will have limited opportunities. At Clack he will have a chance to be the guy for two years, even with the program being down in comparison to past seasons.    [player_tooltip player_id='511878' first='D'Marieon' last='Gates'] 5-8 150 ATH 25' Central Catholic- The 1st team all PIL WR makes the move from Jeff after an outstanding sophomore season where he was one of the top players in the conference. He will be a key addition to an already loaded Rams perimeter where you can expect Coach Pyne to get him in space and have him returning kicks.   [player_tooltip player_id='291229' first='Sam' last='Keen'] 6-3 280 OL 24' Springfield- Keen has done a great job of proving himself on the camp circuit against top competition as it can be difficult to do so at the 4A & 5A level. The 4A POY from Marist will be key for a Springfield team who will rank in the top 10.    [player_tooltip player_id='285851' first='Jace' last='Eveland'] 6-7 325 OL 25' Redmond- The NWOC lineman of the year made the move to Central Oregon from Putnam. The lack of competition was the biggest knock on the big man, and he will see something very similar in the Intermountain Conference.
