Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted December 22, 2021 It is interesting to read the Trojan-take on this hire. They are watching Oregon very closely to see how they will compete... It would appear that Klemm was fired/suspended at UCLA for recruiting violations and then reinstated?

30Duck No. 2 Share Posted December 22, 2021 SC is right in that Lanning needs some X's & O's masters on his staff to accompany the hard pushing recruiters. So far it doesn't look like Lanning will be doing Dillingham's job for him, so that's a positive sign. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 3 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I love how they have SC already penciled in as conference champs even though they haven't done anything yet on the field. I still don't think any of us can quite grasp the potential magnitude of the Lanning hire. While's focusing on putting together a defensive plan to win a national championship he has also been putting together an impressive coaching staff, keeping guys from on the team that were thinking of heading out and communicating with recruits to keep them from signing elsewhere. In a few weeks, he'll be completely locked in on the Ducks and have a top notch staff assembled as he reals in the fence sitting commits and portal guys while possibly sporting some championship bling. USC should be very worried about what is going on up in Eugene. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDuck No. 4 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I'm beginning to have some nagging doubts staff being assembled. It is disappointing Joe Salave'a wasn't retained but that is DL's prerogative. Toni Tuioti should be fine although it's interesting Big Joe is rated a better recruiter by 247. The rumors of Tosh Lupoi make me cringe. While he may not have been sanctioned allegations of shady tactics crop up like dandelions wherever he is employed. I naively believe Oregon is better than that. Adrain Klemm has been sanctioned for illegal benefits plus he was named in a lawsuit against UCLA for player abuse. Not a good look.

LADuck No. 7 Share Posted December 22, 2021 After reading reports on Klemm makes you wonder about his ethics and regard for the well being of the players. With all of the options out there hard to believe we couldn't come up with a better option. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph No. 8 Share Posted December 22, 2021 What 'boundaries' are left to be pushed? Via NIL 'deals, you can recruit today by offering pay-for-play? Seems to me the only boundary left is how much you are willing to pay for a given "student-athlete?" 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me the only boundary left is how much you are willing to pay for a given "student-athlete?" Those are great questions to ask. It probably explains why there's less hesitation to reach out to coaches with less than stellar histories with NCAA violations. I hope this doesn't turn into a "Jail Blazers" era of Oregon football... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't one or more of the SEC schools just tell the NCAA that they were not going to abide by the sanctions? The NCAA only has as much teeth as the schools/league allows. They might as well just have Disney be the governing body of all college sports...E S P N 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean just this side of coaches doing something like directly hiring ladies of the evening for recruits and paying for it with a university check, there almost appears nothing left to violate.

What entity will be around to do the sanctioning? P5 and perhaps G5 when it comes to CFB will soon be an entity unto itself.

Log Haulin Moderator No. 22 Share Posted December 23, 2021 These guys are drinking the Riley kool-aid. "He is the greatest, elite offensive mind, top recruiter". Maybe they should dig a little deeper. Total offense at Okie dropped year to year under Riley. Recruiting went from 5th in 2018 down to 12th in 2020 and 15th in 2021. Fools gold if you ask me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
