David Marsh No. 3 Share Posted January 11 It's over for now. We all HATE that our coach is constantly being looked at for "better" jobs but at the same time we need to be honored that we have a coach that is THAT good. 1 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say it’s over for good unless he goes to the NFL one day. Dude just did what would have been unthinkable just 2-3 years ago. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krsmqn No. 6 Share Posted January 11 So sounds like Lanning wants to stay at least until he brings a Natty home to Eugene. Now, let's hope he wants to stay and bring home 6 like Saban did at Bama. ... Or more? (I can dream) 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pennsylvania Duck Moderator No. 17 Share Posted January 11 Dan Lanning in video confirming commitment to Oregon: 'You be the best where you're at' On Thursday morning, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning released a video reaffirming his commitment to Oregon. "Who has goals and aspirations, raise your hand up," said Lanning in the video posted on X (formerly Twitter). "Everybody's got goals and aspirations, you want to know how you get those? You be the best where you're at. That's how you reach goals and aspirations. That's how great things happen. It's not about worrying about the next thing it's about worrying what's right in front of you; six inches in front of your face. I want to remind you guys what that means. You guys that just got here, you don't know but that's what it means to be an Oregon Duck. Everybody makes commitments on the things they're going to do. A lot of starters, the world doesn't have a lot of what? Finishers. We're finishers."

candyduck No. 21 Share Posted January 11 "...you guys that just got here don't know what it means, but it means something to be an Oregon Duck!" Imagine this statement being one of the first statements you hear if you are new and sitting in on one of his first team meetings. I gotta think they are sitting there thinking...I'm going to be well taken care of for the next 3+ years! Guessing this is also why so few have left via the transfer portal. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllOregon No. 22 Share Posted January 11 Like I said last night in the other now locked thread, the whole rumor/sources felt like a smokescreen. Bama would not be that sloppy. Byrne is pure stealth. Also, makes sense for Dan to stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevada Dawg No. 23 Share Posted January 11 As i said last night, this reputed move to Tuscaloosa made no sense to me for several reasoons. Later, I lesrned of 20 million reasons to add to my meager list---the buyout. Lanning's story about staying in Eugene was the lead story on the Dawgnation daily platform this morning. Dawg fans generally admire the man and follow his career closely. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastBayDuckDad Moderator No. 25 Share Posted January 11 No equivocation at all in that video, short and direct. Lanning just raised the OBD brand a level or two by staying put.
