\"Dallas<\/p>\n

Dallas Cowboys fans can not wait to close the book on the 2024 season after their horrible 3-6 record to start the year, and many of them are waiting for Jerry Jones to fire head coach Mike McCarthy.<\/p>\n

There were many rumors last offseason that McCarthy would be fired after their brutal home playoff loss to the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round, but the organization decided to give him one more season.<\/p>\n

\"Oct<\/p>\n

There is no way the 61-year-old head coach will be on the Cowboys sideline in 2025, and knowing Jones, he will want to make a crazy splash for his new head coach.<\/p>\n

A report dropped this week from ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler said that Oregon\u2019s head coach, Dan Lanning, has been mentioned around the NFL for the last few weeks as a name that could be in the 2025 head coaching cycle.<\/p>\n

The college-to-pros coaching pipeline has slowed a bit, save Jim Harbaugh. But a name that a few people around the league have brought up to me in recent weeks: Oregon\u2019s Dan Lanning.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2018He\u2019s got some Dan Campbell to him.\u2019\u00a0https:\/\/t.co\/2yuePfia7R\u00a0pic.twitter.com\/980BZXoN5n<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2014 Jeremy Fowler (@JFowlerESPN)\u00a0November 13, 2024<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Lanning is an upcoming coach in the sport and is only in his third season as the head coach at Oregon. He is building a winning culture, so there is a great chance he will stay with the Ducks, but if he doesn\u2019t, the Cowboys could be the team that lands him.<\/p>\n

Dan Lanning Could Be Heading To The Dallas Cowboys<\/h3>\n

\"Oregon<\/p>\n

Scott Barrett from Fantasy Points posted his 2025 NFL head coaching hiring predictions on X and has the Cowboys landing Lanning.<\/p>\n

Just guessing<\/em><\/p>\n

Giants: HC Bill Belichick<\/em>
\nBears: HC Todd Monken<\/em>
\nJets: HC Mike Vrabel<\/em>
\nSaints: HC Steve Spagnuolo<\/em>
\nRaiders: HC Vic Fangio<\/em>
\nJaguars: HC Ben Johnson<\/em>
\nCowboys: HC Dan Lanning<\/em><\/p>\n

In the mix: Brian Flores (Browns?), Kliff Kingsbury (Bengals?)<\/p>\n

\u2014 Scott Barrett (@ScottBarrettDFB) November 17, 2024<\/p>\n

Seeing Lanning head to Dallas would be awesome, and the Cowboys should do everything they can to land the 38-year-old head coach.<\/p>\n

Lanning is a winner and has coached both under Nick Saban and Kirby Smart, so the Cowboys would be getting a guy who knows what it takes to win every time you step onto the field.<\/p>\n

It stinks that College football could be losing a great coach, but seeing him in\u00a0Dallas<\/a>\u00a0would be fun to watch.<\/p>\n
