Im with San Clem on this one.
I wanted a defensive Orientated run first smash mouth FB guy.
But then I asked myself. Who is that guy??
Bear Bryant & John McKay arn‘t coming back from the grave.
Not sure that guy even exists anymore. Bama even runs a spread offense at least they line up that way a lot.
I thought Jack Del Rio would be a great hire but then that is a crapshoot too. He’s 3 decades older than today’s recruits. Thats not ideal.
Matt Campbell. Luke Fickell. Dave Aranda. Mike Tomlin. Todd Herman. Jack del Rio. This was my wish list fwiw. didn’t think Riley would leave. Don’t like he lost to Okie State other night but it was a competitive game.
Two A+++++ hires with Saban & Meyer.
and urban sells his soul to win. I don’t want that.
Every hire is a bit of the roll of the dice.
Hope this works. I am optimistic it will. No choice.
He also has a much better resume than Hugs or Sark did. Even Kiffin for that matter. So high marks for that.
It’s an instant credibility hire for a program in dire need of good news. That part I love
In other words welcome aboard you are coming around to the Riley hire as a great hire. You are showing some humility unlike that other naysayer who shall remain nameless who when USC wins a big game 48-35 will be telling us USC won but the defense still sucks. So great to have you on the Riley Train. As Waldorf says good times ahead
Depends. But it doesn't depend on much. Riley with Jaxson Dart running the offense is one heck of a potential powder keg. Even without a good offensive coordinator, like this season, the offense has always been dangerous at USC. That's nothing new. So if Riley is thinking of keeping Harrell, he needs to hide the keys to that car immediately.
I'd have to think that any defensive coordinator Riley hires is going to be a massive upgrade. The talent will come soon enough.
it's an upgrade, sure. but it really is more of the same.
as far as losing to ok st. he lost because his team is undisciplined and not tough. sound familiar.
he's keeping soy pajama boy harrell. so it's the same predictable offense you just watched on saturday. maybe better receivers will be a least a little open.
every natty won at SC has been by a defensive minded coach. every one.
even the defense should be better coached. by the 38th ranked dc.
so yes SC will score and give up a lot of points. won't be boring.
at least there will be an influx of talent on offense. kids will guy in.
so ya, it's going to be better.
remember pantywaste raisins, iq66 and fake-lake/ harbor were happy with keeping fat boy hugs. sc.
