I feel sorry for Dante coming back on whim and having it blow up so spectacularly. It should be clear to the scouts he wasn't getting coached properly and certainly being cheap shot out of a season doesn't make him injury prone. I hope he falls to the mid to late part of the draft to a great team. I not super optimistic about his chances in the NFL given his inability to process his entire field of vision, but he's a good dude that has done things the right way and deserves a shot at the next level. And regardless of how things turn out he will make more money than he could ever hope to learn how to spend.

The season has gone from farce to parody.

Lanning talked about scout team (controlled and protected)

Hope he moves off the sidelines, just in case he might get hurt.

Not that surprising. In truth he probably shouldn't have come back this year.

Assistant QB coach according to wikpedia

New play caller?

Dante Moore https://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/2026/10/oregon-ducks-qb-dante-moore-to-miss-remainder-of-2026-season.html Raiola was 7-6 as a freshman at Nebraska in 2024, and 6-3 in 2025 before injury. Nebraska: 456 of 660, 4,819 yds, 31 TDs, 17 INTs, minus 152 rushing including the sacks.

And He will!!!

I wish Raiola was a more consistent QB, but that would be dramatically inconsistent with this year's edition of OBD. As it is, he is the perfect representation of Oregon Football 2026. It is what it is!

Dont worry about any bowls we couldnt win one

Oh well. A struggle for bowl eligibility.

Ryan Clarke, The Oregonian, twitter/x Dan Lanning says that he is not anticipating Dante Moore will be back this season.

Oregons problems in order for me OLine is the number 1 problem. if you cant open holes, miss blocks, cant hold blocks...you will accomplish nothing on offense. Teams routinely in our backfield as soon as the QB hands off. QB position. after Moore, its just incompetence behind him. I dont blame Brock. He is a walk on. its expected Coach Meh and Coach Terry

Lanning just confirmed in his presser.

We're winning in Columbus.

Fine with me. Not once did I feel he was a title winning QB. Nice guy though.

In South Central, with Linc's missing O, the natives are restless. https://trojanswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/trojans/football/2026/10/26/oregon-failed-offensive-coordinator-41-points-lincoln-riley/92445725007/ https://trojanswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/trojans/football/2026/10/26/wisconsin-mess-showed-usc-football-fire-lincoln-riley/92438805007/

It's the rock, not the sculptor. Raiola would stump Michelangelo. Cornhuskers OC Dana Holgerson has QB Colandrea playing better ball than Raiola did at Nebraska. Colandera was the 2025 Mountain West Player of the Year; he's an athlete. Raiola is not. Raiola was one of the many offseason foul-ups.

Absolutely! Which is why the QB coach has to go as well. The thing is that the Oregon offense was not going to be anywhere good enough this year even if Raiola or Moore were playing better. The play calls were problematic as well.
