Oregon Ducks' Dan Lanning Addresses Ohio State's Ryan Day’s Suicide Awareness, Adversity

Transcript

00:00You've played against Ohio State and Coach Ryan Day now twice.

00:06Seems like you guys are starting to get to know each other off the field a little bit.

00:10What makes him different than maybe some of the other coaches that you've coached against?

00:15Yeah, great question.

00:16I mean, obviously what he's done with his program is unbelievable.

00:18He's done a great job, you know, developing, growing, and improving, you know, that team

00:23year in and year out.

00:24They work really, really hard as a staff.

00:26But I think probably as impressive as anything is the stuff that he's done off the field,

00:30whether it's suicide awareness, his relationship, you know, with his family, being a good family

00:34man.

00:35I think you talk about experiencing adversity last year, some of the stuff that he had to

00:38go through throughout the season, and then the success that came with that, I think, is

00:42just impressive to see how he's able to handle that.

00:45There's a lot of pressure in college football, and he's experienced as much as anybody, but

00:49then he's able to finish that off with great success.

00:51So, you know, he's done a really good job, and it's impressive to see.
