The Oregon Ducks haven’t been shy about their desire to potentially add a second quarterback to the class of 2020, and it appears they’ve locked in on a late target.

According to 247Sports national recruiting director Steve Wiltfong, four-star dual-threat quarterback and recent Ole Miss decommit Robby Ashford is visiting Oregon on an official visit this weekend and arrived in Eugene on Friday evening.

The 6-foot-2, 204-pound signal-caller, out of Hoover High School (Hoover, Alabama), is rated the nation’s No. 10 dual-threat quarterback and has held offers from Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Oregon, Penn State, Virginia Tech and others.

Ashford had previously listed Oregon among his top eight schools in April, but chose Ole Miss in late June.

His recruitment changed recently with Ole Miss’ decision to fire head coach Matt Luke and hire Lane Kiffin, causing him to re-think his decision.

“After taking some time to think things over, to pray, and to speak with my parents I have decided to decommit from Ole Miss," he posted on Twitter. “Thanks to the coaches that have helped me through this recruiting process. I wish you all the best. As of now I am opening up my recruitment. Thank you.”

As for Oregon commit Jay Butterfield, the nation’s No. 4 pro-style quarterback, he has indicated throughout his recruitment that a second passer in the recruiting class wouldn’t bother him.

The 6-foot-6, 205-pound signal-caller was recruited at the same time as D.J. Uiagalelei, who eventually chose Clemson, and indicated the idea of competing with another quarterback was not an issue for him.

“They were very up front that they are taking two quarterbacks and coach (Marcus) Arroyo and staff made me feel like I was a priority as well,” Butterfield told The Oregonian/OregonLive upon his commitment.

But whereas Butterfield is an athletic pro-style quarterback, Ashford is more of a dual-threat option.

Here’s what 247Sports’ scouting report had to say about Ashford:

“Long, muscular athlete with room to grow. Powerful arm with smooth three-quarter delivery. Strength to all three levels as well as outside the numbers. Ability to play off platform effectively with multiple arm angles. Comfortable throwing in traffic or on the run. Effective runner with good instincts and verified long speed. Above average improvisational skill. Flashes touch down the field with accuracy. Can work RPO game effectively with quick trigger. Decisive as passer and runner. Intelligent prospect with grit. Competitor. Relies on plus athleticism at times and bails on structured pocket on occasion. Trusts arm in tight spots, creating high risk-high reward scenarios. One-year varsity starter (2018) with good production in highest classification in Alabama. Potential pro baseball prospect with plans to play both sports in college. Should build into true dual-threat as Power Five starter over time with solid pro potential should his focus eventually fully shift to football. Should develop into a middle-to-late round NFL draft choice.”
