Dan Lanning from Oregon Football, Stein QB competition will be entertained

Dan Lanning, football coach of Oregon Ducks, confirms that the starting quarterback position for the 2025 season is a spacious competition.
Official coordinator Will Stein is satisfied with the progress of the quarterbacks and believes that they have the potential to be successful.

Although the spring practice has just started and the Oregon soccer team is traveling at the spring holiday before they return to training full -time in April, the starting quarterback competition for 2025 is well underway.

At his first press conference after the first spring training of the Ducks, coach Dan Lanning confirmed that a starter was far from deciding on autumn.

“It will be absolutely a competition,” said Lanning. “It is a competition in every single position in the field for us. The competition makes us better. I am excited to grow and you did a good job. We added some folds in this low season that are a bit different and you did a good job to take it up and do it.”

In the first three seasons of the term of Lanning in Eugene in Eugene, the ducks were lucky enough to see two of the most experienced quarterbacks in College football story in Bo Nix and Dillon Gabriel.

A year after nothing broke the record for most of the starts of a college football quarters in 2023, Gabriel broke this record for the ducks in 2024. Both were Heisman Trophy finalists.

Now Oregon is turning the site on a much younger, but also talented group of Gunslingern with the second course Dante Moore, Redshirt Luke Moga, the second Brock Thomas, the true newcomer Akili Smith Jr. and the second year in Austin Novosad.

Moore, which after a bumpy Freshman season in 2023 as a consensus-top QB recruit from UCLA, and Novosad, a former recruit of Blue-Chip, have been the only quarters backs with any kind in the last several seasons.

“So far it has been really fun,” said offensive coordinator Will Stein. “It was fresh, it was sometimes a challenge in a good way … You attacked this off-season like champs. In the first two days you showed a good understanding of our offensive. I think the sky is the border for this group. I have the feeling that we have people who can win games there and we will find out in the next five to six months that they will go out against Montana-State against Montana. Job. “

Moore has the greatest experience and probably most as the country's former top five party in 2023. In Spot appearances with the Ducks last year, Moore 7 out of 8 passing tests for 49 yards.

Novosad published in six games in six games in six games in six games and completed 11 out of 13 pass tests for a total of 59 yards in the MOP-UP service. The native 6-foot 3-born in Texas was four-star recruit and top 10 quarters back in the 2023 class, and Stein praised Novosad on Saturday for his knowledge of the system that occurs the third year.

Novosad is still near nothing, now with the Denver Broncos, and the two will spend time together in the coming spring holidays per stone.

The rest has little experience, but is undeniably talented. Moga was a three-star recruit from Arizona in 2024, Thomas played in Sheldon High in Eugene, before he joined Recruit of Alma Mater of his father in Oregon and Smith-Dem Son of the former duck-grandches Akili Smith and the 16th Quarterback of the 16th place in the last autumn of class 2025.

“So far you have done a really good job to keep the main thing about the main thing,” said Stein. “I'm just trying to grow and not press every day. Every time there is this type of Hyper Quarterback competition, boys are trying to press … I have just asked them to head the offensive. Take every game as your own game and do a good job with it.

A quarterback will go out as the opening starter against Montana State. Every candidate will take a look at it during the spring game of Oregon on April 26 and have all spring, summer and autumn to prove that he should be Oregon's next starter.

“The ultimate thing I am looking for is: Who can we win with?” Said Stein. “Hopefully we have a good number of people in this room with which we can win, but we all know that there should be a guy outside on Saturdays, and that's all too determined.”
