@@huntertrum3658 I am not a USC fan, I am just hoping that anyone will take the bait and actually try to make that an argument lmfao. How fun will it be when a media personality sees it and runs with the idea hahahahaha. I have no opinion on USC other than the pregame stabbing of the sword into the field is cool and Lincoln Riley is the same Coach is always been, successful against bad teams and bad against good teams. But gosh darn if it isn’t fun to stir the pot what’s the point of commenting
He is in the 3rd year of 110million contract he ain't going nowhere and the school is not buying out a contract like that. No school is.. He has another 2 seasons
@@jimbo4612there’s no good coaches available firing him will set the program back even further as well as completely destroy recruiting pure idiotic move. I can see if he was get destroyed every week this team isn’t that great and they are competing with the best in the nation idk what more you think this roster is capable of 😂
He’s not a usc coach as a usc fan I’m tired of these air raid coaches. We need a coach that teaches physicality & runs the football. Usc is tailback u for a reason. He has one more year with juju Lewis coming in
USC played hard yesterday but Penn state had stars at critical positions DT (Abdul Carter), TE ( Tyler Warren ), and QB (Drew Allar), players who are definite high NFL draft picks and James Franklin has completely rebuilt the progran, returning it to when Peterno was running it in his prime. Unfortunately, perception is reality today, and thr perception of Linvoln Riley in the fan base is that he had not elivated this program. He has lost too many important games, is losing in the transfer portal battle and is losing out on too many star recruits. USC should be a destination point for the top college players, including the academic ones, it is So Cal, it has so much glorious history, it should be the SHOW! It has standards like the New York Yankees and Lincoln Riley is not meeting them.
Lincoln Riley has a "Jimbo Fischer" contract, meaning it's fully guaranteed. His buyout is currently $88 million dollars. Does USC have the appetite or the money to pay that? I doubt it. Also, do these guys do any research at all before doing a segment?!
They have to bring Pete to talk to him Lincoln is stubborn he won’t ask him for advice. Pete is teaching at usc right now Lincoln u might have to ask him for advice
I think that Riley-coached teams' biggest problem is the character issue. Obviously, he has a soft character and so does the team. He might be suitable for an OC but has the wrong character for HC.
Trojan fans soured on Pete in his last mediocre year and that's why he left to the pros for a big contract. Sarkasian and Kiffin got better after working with Saban.
Who would they even get? Seriously… what other coach is going to first of all want to go to USC and who is available? Lincoln messed up by not pushing to get a QB in the portal
You said it: his teams going back to I Oklahoma lack toughness. They don’t know how to put teams away and throttle them when they’re up. Sign of softness. Weakness. Riley’s had another year. But if cohen first bring him into the office and suggest that she is doing the math for a buyout and thinking about some names, she’s to blame for the trash program usc is right now.
No coach at sc has ever had to compete with a 7 mil budget (upped to 10-12 recently)vs schools with 20 mil like Oregon, Ohio st etc who probably have moved their coin up even more let’s be real here
If USC wants to compete next season, they need to fire Lincoln Riley like right now… he should’ve been gone with Grinch last season. And bench QB moss miller
@@NorthDallasForty. No more Soft, dainty, baby faced Offensive coordinators. Matt Entz is a defensive coach and is already on staff. He's a 2x National Champion Coach. Hire him.
So done with team, Riley needs to go and the recruiting needs to change, this team top to bottom it’s a joke just over it after today. I thought the LSU and Wisconsin games were turnarounds but it’s clear we got lucky
Elevate Entz to Head coach and Demote Riley to water boy. they would still have to pay him, but maybe he would quit. and SC wouldn’t be losing these games. should be undefeated and not losing recruits. 💯
USC just isn't a top tier program. I don't understand why kids (grow men too since college football has changed) don't want to go there. But that was a trend for decades before Riley, and it is continuing. Hilarious all of the firings. Guy was great at every stop, but USC. It's USC that is the issue.
No, moss needs to run the ball for this offense to work. Riley can't figure this out, even with PSU's DEs crashing down on the rbs all game. You can't fix stupid.
These West Coast teams need to learn how to recruit quality offensive and defensive linemen. Until they can do that, Washington, USC, UCLA, and the like will keep getting beaten up by Iowa, Penn State, and Indiana.
It doesn't make any difference which conference USC is in. The same issues have plagued USC since 2022 it was only Caleb Williams that masked most of those issues. Utah, Washington, Oregon, UCLA beat USC up in the P12 too so that argument doesn't hold water that the BIG teams are dominating USC. It starts with the HC and Lincoln Riley has proven since his days at Oklahoma that he's a soft HC who's teams can't finish games.
STFU. If these clown coaches learned the key was to keep top Southern Cali players at USC, they'd be blowing out every Big 10 team just like the Pete Carroll days.
his saving grace is his contract buyout is probably insane so unless they go below .500 i dont see him getting tossed until the final year of his contract
The problem is not the coaches it is the institution. Kiffin 5-2, 4-2 Helton, 6-0 Sarkisian. To much interference from administration and boosters. Also to many guys going there for all the wrong reasons, $$$$$
How's it going out west in the new mecca of cfb, Trojans 🤣? You guys seeing the downward trend every season we tried telling u about yet? Seems like Riley burned both our houses down huh?
@@hotcarl3854 Stincoln and sc are 11-9 in his last 20 games.. I'm talking state of the program here, not teams on the field rn necessarily. Stinc burned OUrs the way he left, he's slowly burning sc from the inside and Trojans are seeing it
It isn't necessarily all Riley's fault. He isn't a good coach in this situation. Garbage defense and and an obscene amount of errors by undisciplined players. This is nothing new. USC is mediocre and Riley will succeed someplace else after failing here like Sark.
Defense wasn’t the issue. They gave the offense multiple turnovers to put that game away early. Unlike the offense they’re also missing a lot of key players. Riley lacks killer mentality
He’s not a usc coach as a usc fan I’m tired of these air raid coaches. We need a coach that teaches physicality & runs the football. Usc is tailback u for a reason. He has one more year with juju Lewis coming in
