Eastern Washington graduate-transfer quarterback Vernon Adams has been admitted to the University of Oregon and is officially able to enroll in classes, according to the Oregonian.
Though able to enroll in classes, Adams has yet to do so, according to the report. Adams’s next opportunity to register for classes is Aug. 5. Once enrolled in classes, Adams can start participating in team organized summer conditioning workouts.
Oregon officially starts fall practices on Aug. 10.
Adams announced his plans to move up from FCS-level Eastern Washington to Oregon on Feb. 9.
Oregon head coach Mark Helfrich responded to any concern over Adams, and junior college transfer Jonah Moi, completing all of their transfer requirements in a press conference on June 23.
“We don’t anticipate any hiccups on the guys that have been mentioned or are signed to letters-of-intent or otherwise,” he said
At Eastern Washington, Adams threw for 10,438 yards, 110 touchdowns and 31 interceptions.
When Adams arrives at Oregon, he’ll compete with incumbent backup Jeff Lockie for the team’s starting quarterback job.
Oregon starts its season on Sept. 5 at Autzen Stadium against Adams’s former school, Eastern Washington.
