November 28, 20214 yr Riley is a great coach who didn’t recruit quite good enough on the defensive side of the ball in Norman, because it’s Norman. In LA, his recruiting will be way better and his teams will be spectacular as long as he has a strong DC. Great hire. Great move by Riley.

November 28, 20214 yr kicking myself because I wrote a post on the Riley to LSU thread that I did not think it was gonna happen and SC was a more likely destination. Apparently I did not hit Submit reply.

November 28, 20214 yr 8 minutes ago, dcar00 said: well this year yeah. they should have lost to Kansas, lost to Baylor, and lost to OSU with other close calls. so for context, he still has a better record in his 5 years at OU than Stoops did in his last 5 years. the OU people trying to say Riley had a bad trend going have a bit of Saban Syndrome. And that's the other thing - plenty of OU fans are self-aware to realize that OU has gotten plenty of....close calls. Stoops quickly turned around a 5-4 conference team. Do you think that Riley could? And would Stoops have lost first-round CFP games three years in a row? Edit: I think he can succeed in California. But not competing for CFP success.

I don’t know if it’s true or not but there is something keeping Venables from seeking a HC job. I’d moneywhip Aranda or Rhule (he looks lost with the Panthers and the owner is not happy with him at all) or keep Stoops a year and see what shakes down. Stoops can hold the fort until it’s a buyer’s market.

November 28, 20214 yr I guess the question will be how fast does OU want to move? If they want to move quickly Fickell and his quest to guide Cincy to a CFP seem like a non-starter. I don't think this one would get done quietly enough and if you want to project stability you can't wait until January.
November 28, 20214 yr Popular Post OU is due for a Charlie Strong/Tom Herman series of coaches. It's science.

Yeah, we seem to all be forgetting that Big Game Bob had a terrible run in real big games. Riley’s had a better record than Stoops over Stoops’ last years. And we’re really gonna start talking about games he “could have/should have” lost? There’s no guaranteed thing in CFB, but this is as great a hire as USC could have made and a blow for BlowU.

November 28, 20214 yr Smart man. He knows what awaits over here in a real American football conference. If Sark were smart he would take some analyst gig in the nfl.

November 28, 20214 yr I like this a lot. USC has disappointed in so many coaching hires that I’m a bit traumatized. This could work.

November 28, 20214 yr Not talking shit. Just laughing at the "he really sucked. Glad he's gone" front you're putting on.I don’t think it’s a front. That fan base has expectations that are beyond yours and my comprehension.
November 28, 20214 yr Heupel does seem like the obvious choice. Looks like a bag of dicks and has proven he’s actually a good HC. Plus he’s offensively minded and they want that. 8 million buyout
