The U.S. Army All-American Bowl kicks off January 7 at 10 a.m. (PT) on NBC, which means this week is full of practice reports for the major recruiting services.

According to Rivals, Oregon Ducks four-star defensive tackle commit Rutger Reitmaier and four-star cornerback target Deommodore Lenoir both turned heads with their performances Tuesday.

Reitmaier, who signed his financial aid agreement with Oregon, drew praise for his quickness in the trenches.

"After a very quiet first day-and-a-half of practices with the East, Reitmaier came alive when the West team joined the East team at Heroes Stadium for some afternoon one-on-ones," Rivals reported. "Reitmaier is not the first guy who catches your attention physically when looking at the East defensive line, but the Oregon commit has quickness and agility that made him an elusive target for offensive linemen looking to keep him out of the backfield."

Lenoir also received high praise, and has been widely recognized as one of the top performers throughout the week thus far.

"Through two days, Lenoir has established himself as the top cornerback for the West team," Rivals reported. "He's found most of his success matching receivers step-for-step on longer vertical routes, but routinely finds ways to get his hands on passes one way or the other. Lenoir gives himself an advantage in coverage by getting himself into position early enough to get his head turned around, which gives him plenty of time to locate incoming passes."

According to Scout, Lenoir is down to a final five of North Carolina, Nebraska, Oregon, UCLA and USC.

"Coach (Willie) Taggart, ever since he got hired, he made me feel like I'm his number one guy to get on board or to get back on board," Lenoir told Scout. "And the recent hire of Keith Heyward is good because I know I'd have a guy there that knows what he's talking about."

Oregon would love to add both into the fold by Signing Day, particularly if they continue to shine against the nation's best.
