A former head coach at Portland State, Read had been an Oregon assistant for two years (quarterbacks, receivers); he was promoted in early January, immediately after Dick Enright was fired by athletic director Norv Ritchey.

Through 2024, this is the most recent season that Oregon football finished last in conference and is widely considered to be the worst season in program history.
