HUGE power shift for USC and the PAC. OK just got fisted hard. Looks like going to the SEC may not have been the right move after all. Riley saw the writing on the wall. No way OK was going to compete for national championships in the SEC. Much easier path in the PAC.

I'm surprised. Thought he would be at OU for a long time. Maybe he was just looking for a new challenge.

OU is at their ceiling. Moving to the SEC will not help that. Riley is smart and knows that.

Lincoln didn't want to be Nick Saban's pet duck? I don't blame him.

Can this be the coaching move that restores the former glory of the Trojans?

Makes no sense, that's a huge step down. I know PAC12 lovers will disagree, but the PAC12 has been poor for a while, and USC is a shell of what it used to be. I guess Riley didn't want to face the challenges of the SEC week by week after being used to a much easier path to the playoffs in the B12. PAC12 sucks even worse than the B12, so he could turn USC into a playoff contender quickly, even if they may not be a top 4 team in talent.

Absolutely. Expect it. They will be in the playoffs in less than 3 years.

Maybe USC sold him on how they could recruit with NIL. Hard to imagine anyplace better set up for that than Hollywood and the Trojans.

It's one of those that if this doesn't do it, what will?

I would think schools like Alabama and LSU potentially getting the better of you annually would hurt his stock so hard. The PAC is such a mess that it really wouldn’t take Riley that long to find himself atop it. Game management is still an issue, but, again…PAC.
