Oregon football's Dante Moore on billboard in Japan Dante Moore's Heisman Trophy campaign has gone international.
The Oregon quarterback, several of his teammates and coach Dan Lanning arrived in Japan June 23 for the Tokyo Oregon Football Showcase, a three-day event that takes place Thursday through Saturday.
Before the Ducks landed, electronic billboards featuring Moore were installed in the famous Kabukicho District of Shinjuku City.
"Yes, There's Moore!" was the message on one billboard, which also featured an image of the Oregon QB.
Despite being projected as a high first-round selection in the 2026 NFL draft, Moore opted to return to the Ducks for his redshirt junior season.
He is among the early favorites to be a Heisman finalist come December.
Also on the trip for the Ducks are wide receivers Dakorien Moore, Jeremiah McClellan and Evan Stewart, tight end Jamari Johnson and running backs Dierre Hill Jr.
and Jordon Davison.
According to Oregon, participating athletes will conduct a live exhibition to demonstrate fundamental skills, core concepts and techniques.
In addition, Lanning will lead a coaches clinic covering basic route combinations, offensive concepts, and broader tactical strategies.
