USC only has 8 commits, Riley’s going to try to take dang near everyone with him I’d imagine.
 

LA might be too far for some of them though

His five star recruits for the next two years are all from FL and CA. This was an incredibly smart move by him.

The move makes total sense for Riley. He typically recruits Cali heavily. Although he only has one commit from Cali in the 22 class.

Just depends on if he wants certain kids from TX when a lot of kids are going to be wanting to go to USC now. If he closes the CA borders, he can sprinkle in some FL and TX kids. I can see Campbell being a priority but I’m guessing the kids OU got from TX and those they were recruiting might not be in their plans.
 

It will be interesting to see if Carrington stays and wants to go after some big fish that are committed to other schools. Right now, we don’t have anyone in the top 10 committed, so they might go after others.

Riley to USC is stupid good. Fertile recruiting grounds, easy paths to playoff. He’s gonna clean house and prob steal some guys from us. But hopefully OU fucks uo their hire like we regularity fuk. Up.  I wonder if any OU/TEX kids swing our way

I'd be more worried about USC for Campbell now than before. I assume he's taking Bedenbaugh with him. Lot of big time recruitments are gonna get put on hold while watching this play out.

Much better for us overall that he went to USC than LSU though.

LSU has their guy too. If it isn’t Dabo or Jimbo announced in the next day, it’s somebody playing this weekend. Christobal to LSU would be just fucking great for us. Regardless, the agent world says LSU’s deal is done.

Also, LOL at anyone thinking that Castiglione won’t make a great fucking hire, again. 

This. Castiglione is one of the best.

Yeah, we need Oklahoma to hire their Charlie/Turtle Tom please. 

Unlike us, blOU knows how to consistently identify and target good coaching hires. They dug up Riley back when he was the OC at East Carolina.

It’s probably Aranda, but man, Cristobal would kill it recruiting at LSU. It would hurt us, but it would really murder aggy.

To be fair, Riley was on lots of radars then, s as and when the time came to make Riley HC he’d been on campus as OC for awhile.

Whatever.  Many of us wanted Riley here with charlie

Yeah I remember the majority of the people on here or shaggy beating this drum. I knew jackshit about him.

I don't think this affects our recruiting in a negative way. He didn't really recruit Texas all that much considering it was OU. Now he's going to a school that has enough instate talent to feast. If anything they're going to kneecap Oregon's recruiting.

Maybe the SEC move changes this but Texas needs OU to be good to be relevant.

They clearly don’t need us to be good to be relevant so why would we need it the other way around

I would think Knight and the NIL stuff would make it pretty tough for anyone to poach Christobal from Oregon.

OU hasn't been relevant, they've been CFP afterthoughts. If Texas played at their level the past 10 years they would be getting the Bama/tOSU  treatment.

They’re CFP afterthoughts because they can’t actually win a game in the playoffs. If Clemson can stand on their own with all of their rivals being shit, then Texas can as well.

I don’t agree with this at all, because of the SEC move.

2005 OU - 8-4

2009 OU - 8-5

Just cause we needed OU to be down to beat them doesn't make the wins less meaningful, if they hadn't been beating us would we have been motivated enough to win it all?

They are still our primary rival and without them we'll always be overshadowed by the Iron Bowl or whatever the fuck they call Florida vs Georgia. You wanna be like Aggy and have our "rival" be South Carolina?

Christobal to LSU would seriously make things suck in the long term though. Another super bag game to pair with Jimbo will mean we would have to enter the game in a massive way.

I don't wish to sound obtuse, but why would Cristobal to LSU be good for us?  Is this sarcasm?  Or do you think as a head coach he is that overrated?

Because of the two tackle recruits he took from Texas this year.

Orgeron announcing he wasn't going to coach the bowl game is a good indicator.

Ah, of course.  I think I would rather see him at the U, though.  But if him going to Red Stick delivers KB and CW to us, I'm all for it.

Who cares? If you win in the SEC, you’re going to the playoff.

Helluva leap there. You can double down again but you’ll still be wrong. In no way, shape or form does Texas need OU to be good to be relevant. Texas needs to win consistently to be relevant.

You should should stop, take the L, and move on. You had a bad take.
