Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning joins The Next Round for an in-depth conversation about Oregon’s national championship expectations, life in the Big Ten, roster retention, recruiting and the culture he has built in Eugene.
Lanning explains why he wants Oregon to be a player-led program, how the Ducks handle massive preseason expectations and why outside predictions about the College Football Playoff and national championship race don’t matter inside the building. He also discusses Oregon’s move from the Pac-12 to the Big Ten, the recruiting opportunities that come with playing coast-to-coast and why the Ducks have been so successful keeping key players out of the transfer portal.
