Oregon Football: Dan Lanning provides look at OC search timeline

I hope Coach Lanning does the complete opposite of what he did when he promoted both coordinators last year.

He also needs to de-emphasize the importance of recruiting and running a specific offensive system, and prioritize the importance of experience, measurable offensive production and player development.

I hope Dan doesn't make the same mistake of letting his friendships come before the program.

Isn't JJ just an interim hire?

Indeed.

That's what the announcement indicated.

It is likely very difficult concentrating on an outside hire while dealing with a burning Tesla in the dumpster...

DL knows he has to get this hire right and hopefully he's learned his lesson about performing a proper nationwide search for suitable candidates. I'm betting he's going over that list of guys he's met/watched over the years from the Saban/Norvell/Smart coaching trees but I hope Mullen is helping by hiring an outside firm to assist with the candidate search.

I doubt we're going to get any clarity or see any public progress over the next few weeks. It's more important to get the hire right than getting a hire quickly. That being said, he doesn't have unlimited time. He probably has until December to announce a new hire.

At least we know the playoffs won't get in the way🤪

Why can't we do better in the short term than Jay?

And if we wait until the end of the season we'll be competing against Michigan A&M and other elite schools for a coordinators. So it wouldn't be the worst decision to hire a permanent replacement before the end of the season.

I can't agree more. If a great hire is just there waiting to be had just go for it. We could easily miss out on A tier candidates while we're "leaving no stone unturned".
