"During a passionate press conference after his team's victory over Northwestern, Lanning said he agreed with Kirk on a number of issues and disagreed with him on several others. We talked about it with our team, and I think our team feels the same way, regardless of views, said Lanning. I don't think they feel anybody ever deserves to experience what some people in our country are experiencing right now. It's super disappointing."
"I recently found out Charlie Kirk was [an] Oregon fan, right? I didn't know that. I hurt for his wife, Erika, and their kids, Lanning continued. Like, that sort of evil should never exist in our country. And that's what it is, it's evil. The coach lamented that he had to talk to his kids about this shooting and too many others recently, before complaining that there was not a lot of common sense on both sides at the moment."
Oregon head coach Dan Lanning publicly mourned the death of Charlie Kirk and expressed sorrow on behalf of his team. Lanning said he agreed with Kirk on some issues and disagreed on others, but emphasized that no one deserves to experience such violence. He noted Kirk was an Oregon fan and said he felt for Kirk's wife, Erika, and their children. Lanning described the killing as evil, said he has had to talk to his own children about shootings, and stated that both mental health and guns played roles. Authorities named 22-year-old Tyler Robinson as a suspect.
