01/29/25 | Football
DALLAS – Oregon football head coach Dan Lanning was announced on Wednesday as the winner of the 2025 Stallings Award, which recognizes outstanding leadership, character and achievement in college football.
In its 14th year, the Stallings Award is named after former college football coach Gene Stallings and celebrates the values he exemplified throughout his coaching career - leadership and compassion. Proceeds from the award go to The Ashford Rise School of Dallas as a tribute to Stallings' late son, Johnny, who was born with Down syndrome. The Ashford Rise School provides the highest quality early education services to children with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Lanning becomes the first Oregon head coach to win the Stallings Award, after leading the Ducks to the Big Ten championship in their inaugural year in the conference. Lanning and the Ducks achieved the first 13-0 start in program history, earning the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff and a berth in the Rose Bowl.
In three seasons as Oregon's head coach, Lanning has led the Ducks to three straight double-digit win seasons with wins in the Holiday Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl. Lanning is 35-6 in three seasons as head coach, ranking third among active head coaches in both wins and winning percentage during that time.
Lanning will receive the 2025 Stallings Award on May 6, 2025, in Dallas.
