It sounds as though newly-hired Oregon head coach Dan Lanning has locked in on his No. 1 target for the Ducks’ offensive coordinator position.

Lanning is making a push to hire Kenny Dillingham, who has served as Florida State’s offensive coordinator and quarterback coach for the past two seasons, as Oregon’s OC, according to a report from Bruce Feldman of The Athletic.

Dillingham, 31, and Lanning overlapped at Memphis for two seasons from 2016-17, when Dillingham was the school’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

This season, the Florida State offense has tallied 27.6 points per game, which ranks 72nd in the nation, and 379.3 yards per game, good for 85th in the nation, under Dillingham.

Lanning is set to be introduced as Oregon’s head coach during a press conference at 2 p.m. PT Monday.
