I get the feeling that Peterson could still be a possibility, only because he hasn't come out and said, its not right for him at this time.
He's noted as an incredible & energetic recruiter with an excellent defensive mind. And the Ducks want to have elite-level recruiting Chip & Wilcox are a long ways from elite recruiters I think Lanning will probably be the hire. The Ducks have been losing commitments mostly on defense. This might stop the bleeding. But, like Taggart, much will depend on the assistant coaches Lanning hires, if he's the choice. Especially the OC
This situation is such a shit show, I can't even find it in my heart to tease the Duck fans. First, all their shitstain recruits bail out. Way to honor your words you little punks! Then the school decides they will neither find someone with ties to the school nor a proven, successful coach. Here comes Taggert 2.0. Their AD is giving Olshey a run for manager of the year. Bye now!
Why should they have to "honor their words" when the coach they signed on to play for is no longer there? That's just stupid.
Yeah thats some more stupid from Buff, but he's just another Beavis out trolling so whatever. Imagine your team sucked so much that your rival (who barely acknowledges the rivalry) looking for a new HC was a true highlight for you... STOMP
And this ladies and gents, is a reason why I hate the Ducks even though I was a fan as a kid. Just like a Lakers fan with the arrogance.
Lol, shedding Beavis hate like water off a ducks back. Like many Duck grads who grew up in Oregon rooting for both schools, I still do. Can't but laugh at the angry sect of their fanbase tho... truly pathetic. STOMP
Lol, still trying. They could do worse, but from what I've read/he isn't a top target. Additionally the leaks of Oregon's interest are thought to be from his agent trying to bump up his next UCLA contract. Lanning is supposed to be one of their top targets and is said to have crushed it in the interview. However, he has joined the other voices denying that he's been hired and seemed pretty irked about it getting out. STOMP
