Oregon Ducks Coach Dan Lanning Secures $11M Annual Salary in New Six-Year Deal

The University of Oregon extended Lanning's contract through 2030, making him one of the top five highest-paid coaches in college football.

Dan Lanning's new six-year contract raises his annual salary from $8.2 million to nearly $11 million, pending board approval.
The deal places Lanning among the top five highest-paid college football coaches in the nation, alongside names like Kirby Smart and Ryan Day.
Lanning has achieved a 35-6 record since becoming Oregon's head coach in 2022, including a Big Ten championship and an undefeated 2024 regular season.
Oregon's board of trustees is scheduled to meet Friday to finalize the contract, which also retains Lanning's $20 million buyout clause.
The Ducks have seen consistent success under Lanning, with back-to-back College Football Playoff appearances and a strong national championship contention.
