Oregon set to hire new OC to replace Kenny Dillingham, per report
Oregon has had a busy day so far on Monday, with players entering the transfer portal and a reported major addition to Dan Lanning’s staff.
With OC Kenny Dillingham heading to Arizona State to take over as the Sun Devils’ head coach, Lanning looked to UTSA for a replacement.
Per reports on Monday, Oregon is set to hire UTSA co-OC Will Stein to fill Dillingham’s role next season:
#Oregon is hiring UTSA’s Will Stein as offensive coordinator, replacing Kenny Dillingham, sources tell @dwil and me. Stein served as UTSA’s co-offensive coordinator this season. @mzenitz first.

UTSA ranked No. 9 in total offense in 2022 under Stein’s leadership.
Oregon finished No. 3 in the Pac-12 in total offense this season, putting up 507.8 yards per game under Dillingham. That was good for No. 4 nationally, so Stein will have big shoes to fill in Eugene.
