As the coach of the team he brought up to No.1 in 2 & 1/2 years, of Course Dan Lanning will be No.1 on every teams list. But just as he silenced the talk about taking the Alabama job, leaving it for DeBoer, he'll do the same thing if offered again this year. Part of why I'm so confident about this is what I've seen in him since he's been at Oregon and I just don't see it. He's stopping Oregon from being a stepping stone job to a destination job, and he's planted his flag. Besides that, there was a topic just started about Lanning and his coaches having the No.1 recruiting class for 2026, that's thinking and working ahead. His plan is to make Oregon the No.1 team in the country for a long time. 1 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirklandduck Moderator No. 4 Share Posted October 22, 2024 DL is the reason I'm feeling the most confident about our coach not leaving in a long time. He's expressed both privately with the team and publicly that he's staying in Eugene until Oregon kicks him out. Given his young age, his tenacity, motivation, and passion for the program it just leaves me feeling giddy about what the next 5 years are going to be like. That being said, I'm sure the level of success is going to ebb and flow (12+ wins every single season isn't really a realistic expectation). But my gut tells me that DL will always have the program functioning like a well oiled machine year after year, making it a consistent threat to the blue bloods for the foreseeable future. 1 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe you just pulled out Herman's Hermits. That's just awesome right there. "Something tells me I'm in to something good!"
