January 11, 20241 yr Beat me to it... Strong signal from the coach. "If you're scared your coach is leaving... Then come play for us." Turning this into a recruiting opportunity. Edited January 11, 20241 yr by Dav3d
January 11, 20241 yr 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.
January 11, 20241 yr Moderator What an excellent way to announce. At the end it would have been great if he was at a table with 2 hats in front of him and tossed the A into the trash.

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.
January 11, 20241 yr 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)

He won't consider the NFL until he gets a National Championship for the Ducks... and even then he is too good at recruiting and could build something truly special.

January 11, 20241 yr I’d like to thank Alabama for raising Dan Lanning’s (and UO football’s) stock higher than it already is. Great day to be a Duck!
January 11, 20241 yr Greg Byrne still has a soft spot for Oregon, TY Greg for elevating us lol Edited January 11, 20241 yr by JabbaNoBargain

That would have been me but I had parent-teacher conference last night (and night ugghh) and those just wiped me out... but I didn't sleep well lastnight that's for sure. But now it is far more fun watching the Bama drama knowing that we don't suffer because of it.
January 11, 20241 yr Dudes, and Ladies, we have gone from the hunted to the hunters! “Be the Legend”!

I did sleep OK last night: I often slept through parent-teacher conferences. 😁
January 11, 20241 yr Moderator 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."

January 11, 20241 yr Moderator Duck fans celebrate after Dan Lanning emphatically turns down Alabama job Oregon Duck fans celebrate news that Dan Lanning is staying in Eugene DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM Oregon Duck fans celebrated on social media at the news that head coach Dan Lanning would not be leaving to go to Alabama. 7 reasons it made sense for Dan Lanning to stay at Oregon and pass on Alabama 7 reasons it made sense Dan Lanning stayed at Oregon DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM 7 reasons it made sense Dan Lanning stayed at Oregon instead of going to Alabama. Oregon coach Dan Lanning announces he's staying despite Alabama speculation Oregon coach Dan Lanning announces he's staying despite Alabama speculation WWW.FOXSPORTS.COM Oregon head coach Dan Lanning announced Thursday he is staying put amid widespread speculation he would be a top candidate to succeed Nick Saban at Alabama.
January 11, 20241 yr "...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.
January 11, 20241 yr 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.
January 11, 20241 yr 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.
January 11, 20241 yr Moderator No equivocation at all in that video, short and direct. Lanning just raised the OBD brand a level or two by staying put. Eugene is now a destination and not a coaching layover. The only one possibly heading back to Tuscaloosa for a new job is sportscaster Kamerman at KVAL for his Bama insider sourced 'scoop' that DL was there last night.
January 11, 20241 yr How about these? Sark or Deboer to Bama or Sark to Bama then Deboer to Texas or Kiffin to Bama and DT Nolan switches to UO 😀 I don’t feel Kiffin. Dabo before him.

January 11, 20241 yr Gotta say, the longer you don't hear anything from Deboer...well, that says a lot.

January 11, 20241 yr And just like that, poof, the nasty lil rumours are gone! Always a good day to be a Duck. 🦆🏈💯
January 11, 20241 yr Whew! I have to admit I was panicking a bit, but who can blame Oregon fans for that given recent history. Great news.
