Coach Lanning (off field) tidbits season-to-date

Post by bdkipe »

Besides the on-field performance, I've been impressed by Coach Lanning in other ways:

- Explained the proper mindset one should eat breakfast with to Jerry and Jorgy
- Charmed Crepa's pretentious ass by noticing his body ink
- Explained to us how The Lord values ball security
- Paid for gas for a couple of young Duck fans who drove to a game
- Shared his distaste for using an umbrella in Oregon (Coach prefers rain jackets) with Isaac and Suke
- Power-ranked Halloween Candy with Isaac and Suke
- Coined a catchphrase that can be used in recruiting players, recruiting coaches/staff & likely will be borrowed by the Willamette Valley Cannabis Tourism Board
- Tossed serious shade at Chip, Willie T and Mario in a matter-of-fact-way that wasn't mean spirited or snarky
- Gave sandwich recommendations with Isaac and Suke
- Owned the fact, with ZERO shame, that he uses Matthew McConaughey on the CALM app from time to time with Isaac & Suke

First year HC at 8-1 after taking a thumping in his first game shows some serious chops to his potential.

As for off-field stuff, I've read he likes to fish and obviously he's missing a lot of prime Chinook and Steelhead season so I hope he's able to snag a morning in here or there before bowl practices kick-in when there's that brief lull.

Could also be taken as shade towards Brooks. Every UO HC who as taken another job has been fired from said job.

He likes Almond Joy. Personally, I don't like coconut candy bars so that is a terrible choice from my perspective, but I won't hold that against him.

As for sandwiches, his favorite is from a barbeque place in Kansas City called Arthur Bryant's. He gets the combo, with sausage and ham.

His runner up is a sandwich place in Pittsburgh called Primanti Brothers.
