  15. NCAAF futures: Should you back one of these CFB teams to upset Georgia? Oregon (+850) The Ducks are entering a new era this fall as they join the Big Ten and go into battle without Bo Nix under center. That makes them a bit of a dark horse in this race. But that doesn't mean Oregon isn't a team to look out for at 17-2 odds. In fact, Kyle Golik of Mike Farrell Sports ranks Oregon ahead of Georgia on a list of what college football programs will be on top at the end of the decade because of the superior job head coach Dan Lanning has done when it comes to both coaching and recruiting. “The talent Lanning is assembling in Eugene is worthy to be near the top of the country, only thing Oregon has to do is produce results," Golik writes. That's worth keeping in mind when you place your CFP bets for this season. NCAAF futures: Should you back one of these CFB teams to upset Georgia?

  25. “Oregon is not richer than these other schools,” Hopkins continued. “Sure, Phil Knight has a lot of money and he can spend whatever he wants to spend. But he’s really not out here writing senseless checks.” Rather, it comes down to making a strong pitch of the program and a fair NIL deal, says Hopkins: “I think in a lot of these cases, Oregon isn’t necessarily beating these guys out with NIL money. I think they’re being competitive, they’re making fair offers.” Hopkins believes the NIL system in place at Oregon is a well-oiled machine. Perhaps they don’t dish out huge payments up front, but compared to other schools, there’s more of an established path for longer-term NIL success. “The structure is the key. The organization of Oregon’s NIL is the key. It’s put together in such a thoughtful way and there’s so many long-term benefits as to what Oregon presents on their NIL packages.” “That’s really what gets the parents and the kids motivated. Because again, it’s not them saying ‘here is $5 million.’ Like, look, here’s a competitive offer, but then look at how this thing can stack up for you and how we can help you grow your brand and really help you monetize things.” For some kids, maybe the flashy number up front is all they’re looking for. But Justin Hopkins believes Oregon’s success on the recruiting trail is a product of their multi-year NIL vision more than anything else. “I think that’s what people are missing. I know a lot of fans are mad at Oregon because they’re recruiting at an unreal level that we’ve never seen, but you have to understand, I don’t think they’re out there outbidding and buying everybody.” Structure, organization of NIL is key to Oregon's recruiting success - On3 WWW.ON3.COM Following two successful seasons under Dan Lanning and now a transition into the Big Ten, Oregon football on fire on the recruiting trail.
