Very good hire!

Edit; so I said this from a recruiting standpoint but his last 4 years of coaching, he’s been at the bottom of the PAC-12. If you go further back, at UCLA for 5 seasons he had them playing good ball. So if he has elite talent, he’s shown he can produce good pass defenses. Also he’s coached some big name players, so that’s always a bonus.

I am of the belief scheme impacts this as much as anything. Have a Co-Defensive coordinator and a HC as a defensive stud, I am confident that this was carefully vetted and considered. I Am curious if anyone knows of his ability to tech technique and develop talent?

I think so too, Martín has shown he can be successful with proper support. I think he’ll do well here. We’ve had some good DB coaches lately at Oregon. So I have high expectations for Martin!

Lanning played DB so he knows how to coach that position and will be able to fill in any gaps there are in Meat’s coaching.

His bio said he played LB in college but coached DBs at Sam Houston State so he does have some history at the position.

Recruiting thing, but Meat’s son, 2023 4-star CB Cole Martin from Arizona (87th overall in the composite, 65th overall for 247) is committing on New Year’s Day. All Crystal Balls to Oregon now.

So it looks like Oregon will have essentially traded CB coaches with Colorado as Rod Chance is now headed to Boulder.
