Oregon Football introduced new Defensive Coordinator Tim DeRuyter to the media on Monday. He brings with him 31 years of coaching experience that could make an impact in 2021.

The pandemic limited Oregon Football on the field in 2020. There was no real spring practice, no non-conference games to tune up with, and an effort on the field on both sides of the ball that lacked in key moments of a shortened season.
