November 20, 20232 yr Some mention on an "On Texas Football" podcast that there might be some talks between LR's people and aggy. I'm wondering if usc is willing to reduce/waive the buyout and let LR leave ??? One gooner I know (not usually that reliable) says LRs wife and kids are not happy in California...

November 20, 20232 yr 49 minutes ago, NoName said: he's not on the hot seat. his buyout is 60-90m and he is like 2 years into a 10 year $110m guaranteed contract. USC isn't A&M or anyone else who is going to eat 60m+ to buyout a football coach. you think they are going to fire him next year? christ are you a helobious sock? It's as if these guaranteed high dollar contracts cause coaches to lose focus and not care as much
November 20, 20232 yr If he starts next season 1-3 (really 2-9*) and still no defense in sight, I could see USC pulling the tarmac trigger. *plus this year's bowl result.

Throwing big bucks at a big name coach who has burned down his current program and is on the hot seat there? Who would do something that stupid? Oh, right.

Oh, right. In hindsight, we probably should have figured out a way to con aggy into "stealing" our NC winning coach away from us after they fired Sherman.
November 20, 20232 yr OU -> USC -> Texum makes for a solid career trajectory. I think Riley wants the Chargers job. Coaching Herbert and those WRs would be a good fit.

November 20, 20232 yr Calling that house "ocean front" is quite the stretch....waters about a 1/2 mile away. It's a big estate in one of the denser developed areas of PV....still nice, though.

Is the NFL Dumb enough to bring him in as a head coach. Didn't Arizona take one for the team to prove that is a bad idea? I hope he stays at USC and burns it to the ground. Anyone who didn't predict this failure wasn't paying attention. I didn't think it would be this soon but still funny. Dude got paid though.

The dude coached at Utah for 15 years and lived in a hotel the whole time. That’s exactly what all revenue sport coaches should do. It’s a matter of time until they’re fired or take another job.

November 21, 20232 yr 8 hours ago, BigHornedLurker said: I am not a contract lawyer , but I'd imagine if USC and Lincoln Mutually want to change the contract to let him go to A&M they can do that. I'm 100% sure aggy would agree to take over the remaining years on Riley's contract. Those idiots would immediately make a t-shirt with Riley's record against Texas.

I mean Lincoln Riley is in the top 5 coaches I would love to see them hire (along with Dabo, Prime, Kiffin, etc) but I don't think the BMA are going to bite on something that would bring the lulz so we may be in a down cycle and just get standard aggy disappointment for the next coach until they fire him and then go full panic mode and reach to hire the next cycle.
November 21, 20232 yr 15 minutes ago, TonyTexas said: I don’t see how aggy could afford him. He’s reportedly making $11M/yr with a $80M+ buyout. Yeah. A legit rumor is still just a rumor. LR isn't gonna bail on USC after two years. Probably just wishcasting from bmds. I can see them wanting a Riley type to match wits with Sark, in the same way Riley was one of the reasons CDC wanted Sark.
November 21, 20232 yr It took more more time than I am comfortable admitting for the thought, "jeez--USC's nonconference schedule is really Big10 heavy next year" to pass through my head.Plus the travel. It’s going to be ugly for them next year.
November 21, 20232 yr I still think David Tepper is rich and stupid and desperate enough to hire him to "fix" Bryce Young. Wifey and kids dont fit in out in LA and can't go back to OK. Maybe they still have some friends from his ECU days

You're forgetting one BIG point - Daddy will be home next year. It would be unfortunate if aggy lost the last game against us in the Rig12, and the first against us in the SEC. I could see a t-shirt with this, but with maybe an AtM logo over the woman and a Longhorns logo over Gordon Ramsey.

It’s like LR spending his entire head coaching career without ever being at a defensive team meeting.

It is oddly remote, and the south side of the peninsula is oddly sparsely populated. Then you pop up in the port of LA. I’m in the logistics software biz and found the drive on the 47 over the port fascinating.

November 21, 20232 yr Lincoln Riley is a thin-skinned douchebag, but he's not aggy stupid and he's not going to take a job in College-fucking-Station. If he's really going to leave USC after only two years, I'm guessing its for the Chargers or another NFL team, because the league has indeed shown itself to be aggy-stupid when it comes to head coaching hires.
November 21, 20232 yr The house is much closer to SoFi and the new Chargers practice facility in El Segundo. Very interesting location choice considering the commute to USC is a bitch from PV.
November 21, 20232 yr Lincoln does seem like he'd fit better in the NFL than college tbh. Hates recruiting and having more mature/professional players may help alleviate his issues with team toughness/discipline. And yeah, Chargers with those weapons would be a good fit for him. Could easily open up this offseason too.
November 21, 20232 yr No defense in the NFL plays even worse than in college. He takes an NFL job and he's getting fired within 2-3 years.
