This won't be popular but it is NOT meant as a troll job. This needs to be heard.

I was excited about Lanning but hes made two major mistakes in his choice of OC and Co-DC. He's simply hiring his buddies who are getting their first shot at a promotion. Dillingham has zero playcalling experience. If you were on Twitter Spaces when Joey came on to clear the air you then you heard it confirmed. Now our Co-DC has nothing more than 2 years of Power 5 experience as a Safeties Coach/Special Teams Coordinator. This makes Lannings lack of experience abundantly clear.

These are the hires you might expect at the FCS level, but certainly not Mighty Oregon.

This is salvageable with some quality hires elsewhere (Tosh L.?) but the trajectory we are currently on is highly suspect.

No other season would we settle for an OC that's never called plays. No other season would we be excited for Co-DC with such sparse experience. The biggest highlight of Powledges experience is coaching ONE player who happened to be a stud. That's the most impressive thing on his resume.

These are AWFUL hires. If you want to be a Homer sunshine pumper with frosted green glasses then go right ahead..

Mods feel free to lock this thread but please don't delete it. This needs to be heard.

I'd pile on but experience tells me the Oregon hire will work out and the UW one won't

Neither one is overwhelming

@WoolleyDoog is 1,000% convinced that UW is forever cursed and Oregon is blessed by divine providence.

You lost me at 5 pick. FTG. He’s never right. Just a whiny ass at this point. His letter was old guy thinking. Back to the future Crap.

And he got crucified. As they say, if you speak the truth, have a foot in the stirrup.

Maybe Joey 5 pick can convince Lanning to bring back gang green? 5 picks has all of the answers on PDX sports radio. A.J. Feeley was always the best QB at Oregon during Joey's time. In today's world he would have transferred out and started at most of the schools in country.

Feeley was one of the best long term backups Oregon ever had.

I think Lanning will work out well, especially with Xbox and our A and M recruiting guy... you guys with deboner are decent too... but we will see what he can do with your poor talent, probably worse than his FSU talent truthfully.... lol. At least DL has talent to work with. And can't do worse than Mario in calling games. And Dilly is a good qb developer.
