USC Coaching Search - Riley

Dear Santa:

We both know what this is all about, so let's cut the crap:
1) A Bedlam win over ou
2) Lincoln Riley forces ou fans to face the truth about no coach would ever think about leaving the paradise of Norman.
3) Spencer Rattler enters the transfer portal, accidentally hits an intersecting wormhole and disappears to a footballless universe....or Arizona.
4) Calib Williams moves to LA after being promised a role in a Hallmark movie about a new kid in a new town where one is propositioned by gorgeous, white sweater clad USC cheerleaders every live long day, co-starring Lincoln Riley as "Carl".
5) Make this happen ASAP to avoid Christmas traffic

The "milk" and cookies are in the usual space.
Please remove your shoes once inside.
Also flush and put the toilet seat back down this time.

Cowboy Fan Dan.

B1G added Nebraska, Maryland, Rutgers. Look where those three are in the B1G standings!
Missouri and A&M to SEC. How many titles have they won?
Colorado to Pac12- they have fallen off the radar.

Seems like about 90% of these transfers don't pay off on the field. Maybe a few extra bucks is a fair trade off? Wouldn't be for me. What good is more cash if your team is less prestigious, less successful?

Don't know why B1G added Maryland or Rutgers, besides expanded territory they offered. Nebraska and Missouri didn't leave just for money. They wanted stability. Missouri won as many division titles their first two years in the SEC than they did in their first 11 years in the Big 12. Missouri won one Big 8 title after World War II. So Missouri has done OK. Nebraska was already on the decline when they left the Big 12 because of the loss of partial qualifiers. They were hurt by a reduction in their recruiting base when they joined, but that wasn't the only reason they are dumpster fires. Their biggest reason is they are too much like Texas.

Nice thing about all of this, I chuckle when I hear Boomer Sooner now, instead of getting a headache and sick to my stomach.

Oklahoma is going to MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE THAT NEBRASKA DID BY JOINING THE B1G.....
IMHO....Oklahoma will become an also ran in the SEC West pretty quickly....

The only way this becomes analogous to Nebraska is if OU botches the hire and gets really bad coaching for the next several years.

I know I keep saying this, but Nebraska’s recruiting has not taken a hit until this upcoming class. Nebraska’s strength of schedule is not harder overall than it was or would be in the Big 12.

Everybody repeat after me.

Nebraska sucks because their coach sucks. All the vague reasons people give for blaming the conference move for their struggles would show up in recruiting or SOS. Yet it hasn’t.
 
Think it may be settling in on the fans. This leads me to believe that OU tells the big XII, hey yeah, we probably will hang out here another year or two.

They play in a division of pluggers and manage to lose close to all of them.

One problem OU has right now is recruiting. LR is coming for his guys, who they hire only has a small window unless he has his guys he can pull away. Pulling MAC level players for OU to play in the SEC plus losing some current players to LR could make a rough start for them. If OU is arrogant and doesn’t recognize this issue, they could fire a coach in a few years and make it harder and harder to get back.

One other issue was Osborne always looming over everything, sounds like bobby may be doing some of the same here. May want one of his guys at the helm. Your guys may be great assistants but not necessarily good HCs.
