Lincoln Riley to USC

[MaybeACoordinator 8350]

More I think about it, this kinda sucks. If Riley gets USC up and running that partially negates one of the reasons we hired Sark -- recruiting inroads in SoCal. It's nice to see all these decommits from the gooner class right now, but I doubt we get a one of 'em. They are probably all following Riley to USC. 

Meanwhile, BlowU will turn its attention back more into Texas and get its usual allotment of traitors.

I'm too lazy to look up Lincoln's salary history or expenditures but the guy ain't hurting for money and he can absolutely be a HC somewhere for the next 25 years of his life, barring a horrible scandal.  

 

I'll say this, there are a lot of people here in cAlifornia who make a lot less than Lincoln that will never leave.  And they are well aware that their dollar would go further anywhere else.

 

Also, what makes you think a house in Manhattan Beach would depreciate faster than a very likely custom home in Norman.  If he builds an 8 million dollar home here vs in Norman, which one would get sold faster?  There are a lot more millionaires out here and beach front property, or any California property is a finite resourse.

 

 

There are a lot of athletes that live out here and they don't all play for the teams out here. Tiny example, but DYK Odell Beckham and Anthony Davis had homes out here before they were traded to their respective teams.

Hahaha. We sold our house in Manhattan Beach 8 years ago when we moved. We sold for $1.3m. A house that was torn down and rebuilt across street from it on shitty side of the street (backing onto a tire store on Sepulveda) just sold for $5mm. That guy’s cracking me up with his concerns about LRs home appreciation “issues” he’ll experience in awful LA.

The only regret I have is that my children have no clue how fucking good they have it. Maybe they’ll grow up to be those douchebags you’re so afraid of. Oh well. 

I mean you live in hermosa. So children are already likely douchebags   as a South Bay resident my kids have become douchebags. I think it’s the strand and the big tits on rollerblades that does it.

Tell your team you’re not leaving for another program, but leave out the fact that you’re leaving for a different one. 

Run off to an inferior conference because you are afraid of competition.

Throw your rivalry game so that you won’t have to play in the conference championship, freeing you up to take your new job early.

Texas isn’t a blue blood. USC just pulled a top coach from a place where he was winning conference championships 4 out of 5 seasons AND in the playoffs.

 

Texas….did not.

This was all about timing and USC benefitted from 1. Texas and OU's move to the SEC and 2. The Pac-12 being weak and ripe for the taking

I hope Rhule stays in the NFL another two season just in case we have to cut bait with Sark.   

This is not necessarily a shot at any poster on this site or anywhere else, but I don't understand the thinking that Rhule is going back to college coaching. He was in a good situation at Baylor and could have just stayed there until a bigger college job came up but instead as soon as he had some success he quickly jumped to the NFL to coach a losing team. That tells me he wants to be an NFL coach.

If Sark is worth a shit, it shouldn't matter. If Sark can get Texas going, he'll get guys -- especially QB's and WR's -- from wherever he wants to get them.

So this means the king bag of dicks eater himself is making a comeback? He was rumored to be tied into the UF job about a month ago. LSU already had a leg up in the search for potential coaches and USC pulled off the move nobody seen coming. At least nobody in So Cal will judge Riley for his lack of ability in prepping up a brisket.

He'll coach the bowl game.  If they win, I could see the admin giving him a year deal to "keep the ship righted" while they do a search. 

It's not "late" in the coaching search game in a normal year, but it's not even December 1 and 3 of the bigger open jobs (TCU, USC and Florida) are already filled.  Once LSU is filled (potentially this week), OU has to hire internally, take a chance on someone, try to lure a big name out of college or wait until Jan/Feb for an NFL name. 

If I was OU, I just let Bob be "interim," kick the tires after NFL season on some coaches and if I don't find anyone, keep Stoops on for 2022 and be the main driver of the coaching market next year.

Honestly I think thats the safe bet at this point, but OU fans in particular seem to overglorify Stoops performance in the back half of his career. I wouldnt say there was a dropoff at all from Stoops to Riley, there just wasnt an improvement. And if you aren't getting better it feels like you're getting worse. 

Texas fans would be stabbing grandmas to have that level of performance. Chitown is relieved they can move on. My guess is that Bob will probably  hover around the same level at best, and we'll see who they can lineup next.

Riley has nothing to play for. You think he wants to stay for the Alamo Bowl? Sark was announced on 1/3. What recruiting was left at that point? Early signing day was 12/16. Herman was fired on 1/2. 

I thought about that as well. Sark knew he was leaving before the NC game. While early signing passed, he needed more time for the regular signing day and to evaluate the players it seems and to work the portal. How has winning the title game as an OC helped him?

Because we’ve seen a few coaches dip their toes in the NFL to later go back to the college ranks either as the HC (Saban) or as an Assistant.  He could very well want to be an NFL coach either as a HC or Assistant until he calls it a career.  Or he could be like Saban where he did a few years and got it out of his system and went back to the college ranks.

What part of we didn't fire Herman till January 2nd do you not understand? The Alamo Bowl was 12/29. I get you're bitter about how things turned out this year but you're picking a ridiculous thing to be upset about given the reality of how it all went down.

This.  Come on now.

Early signing period ended like December 20
Alamo Bowl was Dec 29
Herman was fired Jan 2
National championship game was Jan 11

With the late start into the coaching search and late start for Sark's tenure, that game was really his way to impress uncommitted guys on his offense on national TV. 

Riley trying to coach the bowl game for OU through the early signing day was next to impossible.  Riley has reasons to start the job now, flip his 2022 guys to USC for early signing day and then build momentum for NSD. 

Two totally different situations.  Same goes for Napier and Dykes.

I also don't think a week would have helped him evaluate us (on film) and work the portal, when the portal really didn't blow up until later. 

The problem is transfers seem to want to see something before deciding to take a chance on a first year coach.  You look at Aranda and Tucker who, after a shitty year, were able to sell something to portal guys like Kenneth Walker, Dillon Doyle and Siaki Ika.

Most college coaches are snakes. Clay travis, who’s loved around these parts, was making good talking points yesterday that college coaches are the only profession that doesn’t have a non-compete in their contract.


The coach of the Timberwolves just can’t go coach the Knicks or lakers if they come calling. But college coaches can cut bait and bail if the right opportunity calls.

Really turns me off for my love of college football.


That and the money they and their coordinators make.
