Oregon Football's offseason news headlines continue to roll in despite the team being off campus for Summer break. The secondary may have some question marks, but the first-year defense of Dan Lanning and Tosh Lupoi should still be better than what it was a season ago. The staff finished the 2022 recruiting cycle about as strong as they could have, and they've continued to land verbal commitments to keep the momentum rolling.

On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by Rian Winter (@SportsChat503) to discuss the latest news surrounding Oregon Football. It's still early in the 2023 recruiting cycle, but Dan Lanning and his staff are off to a superb start with a staff that has, historically, made names for themselves on the recruiting trail. The early returns are strong, and should make Duck fans excited about the recruiting potential of this staff once they get a full cycle.

They conclude today's show talking about how Oregon's future scheduling could change now that the Pac-12 has nullified the importance of divisions. Oregon should want to play USC every year, and if the Pac-12 is smart they will make the Ducks and Trojans a "protected rivalry" that is one of their biggest games every year as it has been in the past. Plus, a discussion about how the hype around early season non-conference showdowns has grown in college football.
