Oregon's Marcus Arroyo Getting a Three-Year Deal to Stay on as Mario Cristobal's OC

Mario Cristobal landed one of his first big recruits as Oregon head coach a week before the early signing period, retaining Marcus Arroyo, whom he split offensive coordinator duties with under Willie Taggart. A source told SI the 37-year-old Arroyo is getting a three-year deal to stay in Eugene as Cristobal’s offensive coordinator.

Arroyo, a former San Jose State quarterback who spent the 2017 season as the Ducks’ co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, will be the play-caller under Cristobal, who was promoted to head coach after Taggart left the Ducks last week to become the new head man at Florida State.
