The University of Oregon Ducks have made headlines with the announcement of contract extensions for head coach Dan Lanning, offensive coordinator Will Stein, and defensive coordinator Tosh Lupoi. Lanning’s extension through the 2030 season, which will see him earn an average of $11 million annually, makes him one of the highest-paid coaches in the nation. The Ducks have also extended Stein and Lupoi through the 2027 season. Oregon’s commitment to investing in its coaching staff is further evidenced by an increase in the salary pool for assistant coaches.
Under Lanning’s leadership, the Ducks football program has seen unprecedented success, with Oregon currently having the No. 1 recruiting class for 2026. Lanning, along with Stein and Lupoi, led the team to a strong 2024 season, culminating in a Big Ten Championship Game win before falling to Ohio State in the College Football Playoff Quarterfinals.
Stein, who also serves as the quarterbacks coach, has guided standout quarterbacks Bo Nix and Dillon Gabriel to Heisman Trophy finalist status. Additionally, a record-breaking 12 players from the Ducks were invited to the 2025 NFL Combine, showcasing the team’s talent and potential at the professional level.
Oregon’s continued commitment to excellence both on and off the field, as well as their investment in top-tier coaching staff, solidifies their position as a powerhouse in college football. With Lanning at the helm until 2030, the Ducks look poised for continued success and remain an attractive destination for recruits and top coaching talent alike.
