USC special teams ranked 96th.

ya, have to agree. not a great nick. 162 sort of flowed, like fake lake, Raisins, and IQ66. The Triumvirate of Rahtard. 162 reminded me of the Timmothy Hutton movie Turk 182.

CLR comes across as a wicked smart guy. makes no sense to me. Could be as simple is that he's a man of his word and gave his word to the grinch who didn't bail out on him when he saw the mess left by the prior staff, and promised him he would get minimum of 2 years. Who knows. He keeps things close to the vest.

See my post about “this is going to go one of two ways”. It’s going the first way for awhile.

they Improved last year with lots of new bodies and more new bodies are coming. Takes longer to build a cohesive defense so I’m not surprised at year 1. Year 1 also was a slight improvement on 2021. So we will see if they can shave 4-6 points more off the totals in year 2

im not thrilled how these rosters are being built today. And that might be more indictment on the world and sport of today than Riley

Yeah, he obviously plans on not punting again vs ND. He's never been to South Bend before. We'll see how well that works with the SLC-level ref job USC gets there.

The stupid learn the hard way.
