Lousi played for the College of San Mateo, a junior college about 20 miles south of San Francisco. The 6-foot-5, 295-pound offensive lineman is a four-star recruit, according to multiple websites and is rated the No. 1 offensive guard in the 2014 class, according to 247Sports Composite.

Arizona State, Colorado, Hawaii and Kansas were the other teams to present offers to Lousi, who also visited Texas Tech last weekend. Oregon offensive line coach Steve Greatwood recruited Lousi.

Lousi is the first offensive guard recruit to commit to the Ducks for 2014. Offensive tackles Braden Eggert (three stars, according to 247Sports) and Tyrell Crosby (also three stars) are the other two offensive line commits.

Shortly after the announcement, Lousi expressed his excitement on Twitter about coming to Eugene and he’s recruited other players, such as JUCO wide receiver Eric Lauderdale, to join him:
