Dan Lanning offers early thoughts on next weekend's game with No. 8 Indiana No. 2 Oregon will host No. 8 Indiana in Eugene next week. Oregon coach Dan Lanning offered early thoughts on next weekend's game.

His brother, freshman Na'eem Offord, is on the roster too and has played in all 5 games.

In some ways I feel sorry for the young man. Tearing it up in his former school and conference, he thought he could transfer to a school where he would be seen by more scouts and improve his draft stock. While Oregon was a school that could have done that for him, he found there were RBs already here that were simply better, and he could not beat them out for playing time. I hope he has the best of luck in all his future endeavors.

Not sure how another year would give him more playing time. Whittington is gone after this year, but Limar still has another year as does Harris and then there's the upcoming freshmen Davison, Hill and Riggs. Am I missing anyone? Damn our RB room is loaded and who knows who we may add next year. My $ is on Hughes transferring, it makes the most sense for all parties IMHO.

Nah, my insurance man says once you pay the premium and you are insured, no refunds. However, I'm pretty sure it was term insurance, and the term is up as soon as the portal opens.

There is no portal available at this time, except for the Stargate.

I’ve been waiting for this so I could finally let go and move on to Indiana. Just the little behind the scenes of insight we are provided make me wanna run through a brick wall for these young men. Every time I see coach Lanning behind the scenes reminds how close we were to hiring someone else, and how many of us on this forum were skeptical. I thought he was gonna bail for sure when Alabama came knocking. When he stayed I decided then and there that all the ghosts of the past were dead and buried. It’s not if he can win a championship, but when he wins it I’m never calling it a “natty”, that’s what the old Ducks fan in me would have called it. I’ll call it a “chip” because it’ll just be a little piece of the legacy he builds here.

It seemed like a couple of the most important completions by Allar were made on his way to the turf... Was it luck, or incredible poise in the grasp of an Oregon defender, as the D reacted to the QB's peril, rather than minding their assignment?

I hope he stays, but if he does transfer I’d like to see him go to Dilly at ASU.

Odds are, with Whit gone at the end of this season, and potentially a couple of the other players looking for greener pastures, this could be a brilliant move by Lanning and Hughes.

Thanks, OregonDucks. That Joel Klatt interview on the Herd was well worth the listen.

Since posting above, I read the article attached at the top of this thread as well as an article on 247. The latter says Hughes has not indicated that he wants to transfer and quotes Lanning as saying he wants to keep him.

Let's take a look, shall we? 🦆

Joel Klatt agrees that Penn State is running the wrong offensive system for Drew Allar (4:24).

There will definitely be some takers, it's just a matter of what level they are. I'm willing to bet that Hughes could still get a call from a reasonably upper power 4 team, no idea who, but with the production he had at Tulane, I'm willing to bet somebody will have a spot for him. Makes no sense to stay here when you have two freshmen who are already ahead of you in the pecking order.

Not sure, but I suspect that it’s not as simple as saying “I am going to transfer.” He needs to have a place to go that wants and needs him. If I recall correctly, lots of young players put their names in the portal and there are no takers.

If Hughes does transfer out, which is likely, it is an incredible recruiting pitch for Lanning. When he says "if you're good enough, you're old enough" he absolutely means it. I don't think it would detract from transfers because we have seen so many transfers become major impact players and boost their draft stock. But for prep recruits... They have proof they can make a major impact as true freshman if they have what it takes.

No it at all surprising. In truth I wouldn't be surprised if Hill and Davidson start taking over the RB room and rotation. They were by far the most effective backs against PSU.

That reminds me of the 2009 USC "Fright Night" game at Autzen. So much emotion went into dominating them that Oregon came out flat against Stanford the following week. Stanford dominated early and OBD could never catch up.

As always, a polished and inspired production. My favorite moment was toward the end where Dierre Hill embraces Kenyon Barner with small knowing smiles on both men's faces. The passing of the torch.

Google search states we would be tied with… USC in 2009 (Leinhart, Palmer, Sanchez, Booty) Michigan State 2014 (Cousins, Stanton, Bell, Cunningham) North Carolina, but only three listed (Brissett, Rivers, Wilson) with no date.

REFUND!
