Who needs Will Lyles? Ducks land two from Texas

Duck Territory’s Justin Hopkins posted today that Oregon got a verbal commitment from two Texas defensive backs, twin brothers Eric and Stephen Amoako of Martin High in Arlington, Texas.  The two have yet to make an official visit, so their pledge won’t be officially accepted until they come to Eugene and meet the coaching staff.

Both stand 5-11, 195.  Here are some links:

Rivals lists the twins as unranked, Scout three stars.  The two were getting interest from Pittsburgh, Purdue and Oklahoma State among others.  They’re listed with 4.5 speed in the 40, but so is every high school prospect from Newport, Oregon to Miami Florida. MaxPreps lists Eric as having 59 total tackles last season, with three interceptions.
