homersapien 12,275 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) Little bit of a gamble, but I like his resume. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/lists/dan-lanning-kenny-dillingham-named-potential-candidates-for-auburn-head-coaching-vacancy/ I think he would jump at the chance and he sounds like someone who would stick.

W.E.D 11,071 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I'd rather pay Lanning 7mm a year with a 14mm buyout than Lane at 10mm. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would leave his first major coaching job after one year, but sounds like someone who would stick. 🧐 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodford 3,754 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 If Oregon wins out and makes the Playoff and Lanning leaves then they should cut ties with Nike lol A cunning coach/AD could take full advantage of a Nike NIL and land the #1 class every year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oregon just got to get someone who likes the West Coast. Last 3 coaches who had any success there left to come back to the South. Also I would love to see AU hire Lanning. My uncle said he reminds him of a young Pat Dye… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMO WDE Oregon wants B1G but would probably do better in Big 12 long term. They would get to play in Texas, Arizona, and California every year. Edit: and Florida and Ohio every couple years Edited November 7, 2022 by woodford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His B/O is 14 mil then drops in January. If money is no Object then by all means go get Lanning I'm all for this hire...

dyehardfanAU 2,117 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I'd rather have Freeze than Lanning. Lanning is probably my top Tier B choice though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMO WDE That, plus the present PAC 12. Most of the nation isn’t watching, or can’t watch because of the time zones. Also, playing in front of near empty stadiums can’t be appealing once you’ve tasted the SEC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
