EzDucksIt No. 3 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Curious how this will affect our recruiting class. Due to the offensive scheme. Wow. Thought he would stay at least one more year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LADuck No. 4 Share Posted November 27, 2022 College football is awesome but some parts of the modern era not so good. We give a coach very good money and he does one year and out. Zero loyalty. If we don't make the Rose Bowl may have some key players opt out of the game. Used to be you went to a bowl game all the players showed up and it was a good time for everybody. Oh well ... not much you can do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Duck No. 5 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) Give a 32 year old an incredible offer and contract to be the head coach at his Alma mater, and get to go home to the town you grew up in, and guess what? The guy is going to be gone. This would be about least big surprise in the history of surprises. Edited November 27, 2022 by Desert Duck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LADuck No. 6 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Yes hard to say no to it. Make a ton of money and even if you are not a good HC you still have guaranteed money. Hopefully no recruits follow him and ASU continues to suck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gusduck71 No. 7 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I hate to see Kenny D. leave but I believe he can be replaced. The Ducks have very good players on their offensive roster and many OC's would love to coach them. I honestly think a solid defensive coordinator is harder to come by and more valuable. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 8 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I think the offensive philosophy is a Dan n Dilly hybrid. Dilly wasn't a 45 points a game play caller before UO and probably won't be after he leaves. To me, the guys he got to coach here are the biggest part of his success. I think the offensive design has been established and the next OC will most likely be asked to call plays, add some parts to this offensive plan, coach QBs and recruit his arse off. Don't know how this effects Moore's commitment but the offense in general should still look the same next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CalBear95 No. 10 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Probably an unknowable but one has to wonder how much the prospect of working at ASU colored/impacted his approach over the last three games. It's hard compartmentalizing that sort of thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDuck Author No. 11 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I admit to archaic views but I don't believe you should be finalizing your next gig when you should be focused on the most important part of the season. How much of the players lack of focus goes back to the example set by Mr. Dillingham? 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasDuck No. 12 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Lanning can get another good OC. The bigger issue is Tosh. It will be interesting to see how Lanning handles that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 13 Share Posted November 27, 2022 It's funny how Taggart can go 7-5 and FSU just has to have him. Mario manages to win a Rose Bowl with Herbert as QB and Miami breaks out an $80 mil 10 year contract. Dilly literally calls a few good games at UO and is offered a head coaching job. Seems like they are all way over reacting to the success coaches can achieve at UO. The coaches may leave but the UO magic stays at Autzen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 14 Share Posted November 27, 2022 No...you sell yourself as something magic and get a multi-million dollar contract that sets you and your family up for life. And you don't even have to win! Try your best, get fired, take the buy-out and laugh to the bank. We dis Taggart, but he got 17 million to leave Florida State....whew! 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're on to something. 1. Coach at UO. 2. Let UO success build your buzz. 3. Let desperate team open the bank vault to get you to save them. 4. Sign top dollar contract. 5. Fail spectacularly. 6. Enjoy early retirement. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
