Dakota Prukop

Prukop is a transfer who hasn't played at the FBS level, but he has every bit of the pedigree Vernon Adams did a year ago, and arguably has an even better profile. In 22 games at Montana State, Prukop threw for 5,584 yards (9.2 YPA), 46 touchdowns and 16 interceptions while running for 1,743 yards (5.3 YPC) and 24 touchdowns. Combining Prukop's dual-threat skills with Oregon's tempo and scoring propensity is an obvious formula for elite production. While Prukop hasn't technically been named starter, the expectation is that he'll hold off redshirt freshman Travis Jonsen.
