The Oregon Ducks are set to welcome former Ohio State cornerback Aaron Scott Jr. on a visit on Thursday (Jan. 15), per 247 Sports’ Tom Loy.
Scott is rated as a three-star and the No. 18 cornerback and No. 272 player overall in the portal. He was a four-star and the No. 5 cornerback in the 2024 recruiting class but never managed to carve out a consistant role with the Buckeyes.
The 6-foot, 195-pounder from Springfield, OH, saw little time in his two seasons at Ohio State, recording just two tackles as a true freshman and appearing in seven games for the national champion Buckeyes. He saw a bit more time as a sophomore in 2025, as he finished the season with nine tackles.
Sources have informed @247Sports that coveted Ohio State cornerback transfer Aaron Scott Jr. is expected at Oregon on Thursday and at Tennessee Friday and Saturday, as his process inches closer to a final decision.

Scott has already taken a visit to fellow Big Ten foe Wisconsin and is also expected to visit Tennessee on Friday and Saturday after his trip to Eugene on Thursday. LSU has also been reported as a school of interest.
The talented Scott appears to need a change of scenery to jumpstart his career, something that could happen in Eugene with the Ducks. Oregon has seen success from secondary transfers in 2025 from Dillon Thieneman (Purdue), Jadon Canady (Ole Miss) and Theran Johnson (Northwestern), with Scott potentially adding his name to that list come 2026.
The former Buckeye will have three seasons of eligibility remaining.
