Next Duck Coach: DAN LANNING

[UofO8]

My personal dream scenario: Oregon hires Peterson and then he calls up his buddy Helfrich to be O.C. and Helf is free to say yes now that all vestiges of the coaching staff that replaced him are gone. Both guys become Oregon lifers and lead the Ducks to a national championship, and everyone lives happily ever after.

Replace Helfrich with Brennan Marion and I'm on Board. I still think best case if you get Peterson is a few years of his services before doing this again though.

I'm confused as to why people keep saying Marion, isn't he just the WR coach at Pitt? lol

But he's been an OC at the FCS level and had some good success. Being a WR coach at FBS schools are his stepping stones.

Some key qualifications I'd look for:
- Not a re-tread
- Solid recruiter
- Known for developing talent
- Views the Oregon job as a "Dream Job" aka doesn't have any other school out there they will leave for. I want someone here for the long haul.

Your first key and last key make it unlikely to find a candidate who wouldn't be an over promotion.

To be fair, who didn't say, "WTF? Who the hell is Chip Kelly???"

Who found Chip anyway?

Not a solid recruiter and didn't view Oregon as the Dream Job so he wouldn't have fit Dmoney's parameters.

Joe Brady is available. This might actually be really good timing.

Joe Brady is available. This might actually be really good timing.

Brady might be a good fit for OC, but what would make him a viable HC candidate? He essentially has 1 good season as a co-OC on his ledger, and just got let go from his gig as OC (albeit NFL, not NCAA). Also, guess where he grew up? Southern Florida.

Doesn't the story go in 2003 Urban Meyer's Utah squad beat Oregon 17-13 with an offense that caught coach Bellotti's eye. After a disappointing 2004, where Oregon went 5-6, missed a bowl, and averaged 25.6 points per game, OC Andy Ludwig was fired and Bellotti hired former BYU HC Gary Crowton to put in a spread option based offense.

The next year Oregon went 10-2 and put up 34.5 points per game and Crowton was a Broyles Award finalists for the top assistant coach in the nation. The next year Oregon dropped back to 7-6 and 29.5 points per game, but, Crowton still got hired away to LSU (where he won a NC with Saban in 2007). With the spread option community still being fairly small, Crowton recommended Chip to Bellotti.

Not only does he only have 1 good season as co-OC, it was having one of the best offenses in the history of CFB lol. There's a strong possibility Burrow and co just made him look like an offensive genius

I think the easiest hire to keep things in tact quickly if Mario leaves would be Joe Moorhead. He can keep most of the staff from a 10 win team and bring in an OC/QB, OL, and TE/ST to his liking.

I am pretty sure Moorhead has already signed with Akron and is gone.
