What has become a trend on social media is former NFL head coach Jon Gruden opening boxes from colleges around the country. He’s been at it for a couple of months now with some big schools sending in Swag for coach Gruden.

Many have been hoping to see an Oregon box make an appearance and the wait is finally over.

On Friday morning Gruden opened up a giant box of Swag from Oregon equipment. It included an older helmet, lots clothes like hats, jackets, shoes, etc. Gruden modeled several of the articles during the 5 (ish) minute segment.

“This is a hell of a box. This is a great box. Not good but great. And that’s a big difference. Oregon is an acquired taste and I’ve acquired the taste. I feel like Vanilla Gruden.”

Gruden also did a great job referencing some famous Oregon names that played or are playing the NFL currently. From Mike Bellotti to Rich Brooks to Marcus Mariota, Bo Nix, Akili Smith, Haloti Ngata, Bucky Irving, Penei Sewell, Ahmad Rashaad, Bobby Moore, Mel Renfro, Max Unger and many more names.

He was also quick to call Dan Lanning one of the top coaches in the game today.

“Big Ten champs. First year in the Big Ten they go 13-0. How about that? Coach Lanning and his staff have done a fantastic job. That’s a young coach to keep an eye on. He’s a badass.”

Gruden also was quick to recall Oregon’s lineage at the quarterback position.

“This is arguably quarterback university. Not a lot of people think that.”
