EUGENE — One of Dan Lanning’s mantras is “if you’re good enough, you’re old enough.” While Lanning and his staff have certainly shown a willingness to rely on younger players that have the talent to play early, Oregon is likely going to put those words into practice more this fall than at any point in his tenure.

The Ducks have just 11 scholarship seniors, plus four walk-ons in significant roles, and 18 juniors on a roster that is now 100% players signed to UO during Lanning’s tenure. Most of the seniors are transfers, including three offensive linemen, two defensive backs and one receiver this offseason, and five of 18 juniors also began their careers elsewhere.
