Dante Moore out for season

Sports · Heat 5.6 / 10 · 6 shows · 27m airtime

Oregon quarterback Dante Moore was ruled out for the season on October 26 after being knocked out of the USC game, with Dan Lanning saying he is expected to make a full recovery. Moore returned to Oregon instead of entering the draft as a projected top-five pick and was likely paid six to eight million dollars in NIL. The discussion is whether shutting it down is the right call given the offense's disarray and the firing of the offensive coordinator, and whether he remains a top pick.
