Dan Lanning has had a successful two seasons as the Oregon Ducks football head coach and to think he’s on any kind of hot seat in terms of job security is a bit comical.
CBS Sports tends to agree with that assessment as they determined whether a coach is on the hot seat or not for all 134 FBS college football head coaches and Lanning is one of a few that has absolutely nothing to worry about.
On a scale of 0-to-5, with 0 being the furthest from being on a hot seat to 5 being win now or don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Interestingly enough, only one coach in the country, Sam Pittman of Arkansas was rated as a 5. He’s 23-25 as the Razorback head coach and things are becoming boiling hot in Fayetteville
A few names Oregon fans might be curious about is Mario Cristobal at Miami. He received a 3 rating (Pressure is mounting), up from a 2 (All good … for now) from last season.
Former Duck offensive coordinator, Joe Moorhead of Akron, is in the same spot as Cristobal. Former Washington coach, Kalen DeBoer, now at Alabama, received a 2 rating and hasn’t even coached a game in Tuscaloosa. One average season there and that rating will go up.
As for Lanning, his rating of 0 (Untouchable) will remain just that as long as he stays the course, continues to recruit at a high level, and wins some playoff games. The future of Oregon football is as bright as it ever has been.
