Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 4 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Question from Sportswriter: This is Oregon, and people are saying that the fact it is your first head coaching job and it is at a place like Oregon....puts you at a disadvantage? Dan Lanning answering confidently: "Sit back and watch." About Hiring Assistant Coaches: "I wasn't going to sacrifice having a great coach, and not having a great recruiter. Coaching is great, and its a huge piece of it, (success) but its not the biggest piece..." (Recruiting is!) Whoa! About Recruiting: "Its 365 days a year; recruiting is about consistency, and not just about flash. You want to be (as a coach) at a place that is a 'have,' not a 'have-not,' and Oregon is a 'have." The last five minutes? Whew....gets me excited! 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Ducky No. 7 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Thanks For the link. This young man is aggressive, motivated, and humble at the same time. He is calculated in everything he does and I doubt if we will see the deer in the headlights look on the sidelines we have seen in the past few years. If he can’t get players and fans motivated then there is something wrong with our DNA. Can’t wait to see if he can land some of this group coming in this weekend. I think he will. Go Dan.

30Duck No. 8 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Since 1969 when I spent my first summer waiting for football to start in the fall, I haven't been this excited, (no Pointer Sisters this time) for football season to start. So far Lanning hasn't made a mistake yet. Doesn't mean he's perfect, but I'm fine with 99.7% Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 9 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Man I'll take Lanning's honest enthusiastic answers over Mario's leather helmet coach speak any day. Great stuff! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph Moderator No. 10 Share Posted March 9, 2022 The coach knows. It's all about the Jimmies and the Joes. 3 star guys can be coached up for certain. But to contend today you need a Blue Chip Roster (50% or more 4 + 5* recruits.) Cincinnati last season was a big time outlier with guys who were coached up to be NFL draft picks. But outside of the win at an overrated Notre Dame, the schedule for a final 4 participant was incredibly weak. Came across an interesting factoid. 10 WRs on Ohio State's roster in 2022. All are top 150 recruits. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
