Dan Lanning and his staff sure do know how to recruit.
That’s not to say anything about Mario Cristobal and his staff at Oregon, who were certainly no slouches when it came to convincing some of the top talent to come to Eugene, but rather an acknowledgment that the early returns from the new regime are as positive as we could have imagined.
What stands out about the new regime, though, is how much fun they appear to have with recruits while on visits, both official and unofficial. Whether it’s the tricked-out photoshoots or a simple ride around campus, recruits appear to be in good spirits as they dance around and take a look at what could be their new home in a matter of years.
That was the case this weekend for Oregon’s massive recruiting weekend — one where a total of four 5-star players were in attendance, with a long list of 4-star players in tow as well. Guys like QB Dante Moore, RB Richard Young, DE Matayo Uiagalelei, or DE Jayden Wayne all appeared to be enjoying themselves with the coaching staff. Here are some of the best tweets and reactions we saw from the weekend:
