USC is a bigger job than Oklahoma.

Only slightly.  And its also probably a harder job now.  College football is king in Oklahoma, but its just not as popular West of the Rockies as it once was. I would venture a guess that soccer will eventually eclipse College football in the Los Angeles area in both attendance and ratings.

LA is a bandwagon capital. If he can get USC back to 9 win seasons (which would be easy keeping the CA pipeline he has)  the coliseum will be packed just like the Carroll days.

Somewhat yes and somewhat no. They are actually fairly close.

OU SEC has a far lower ceiling right now than USC Pac 12 does.

There's no somewhat about it.

OU have already lost most of the important 22/23 Cali commits they had - they'll be following Lincoln Riley to USC.

They'll win the PAC12 every season with Riley in charge and get a Playoff berth every year.

Oregon are offering Cristobal a 10 year extension, that's going to be throwing good money after bad because their Cali pipeline is about to be cut off. When USC are rolling them dominate the West Coast - they're a monster.

Spent a lot of time in Los Angeles due to family in the area, and college football is rarely even mentioned.   Even when USC was good, they were rarely discussed.  Reilly will go from being the coach of the most popular team in Oklahoma, to being less popular than the Lakers, Dodgers, Rams, and probably the Soccer club.  

Maybe less pressure from the local media is a positive for him.

I may be crazy but Joe Brady to Duke seems like a good fit.  Nice stepping stone for a young coach to get his feet wet.

You are crazy. Why would a young up and comer with now NFL ties go coach at a program that is a complete joke, no respect, and could go 12-0 and still wouldn’t fill 1/3 of the stadium?

    • Some of this is just brainstorming/throwing poo against the wall, seeing as how we have one of the least talented QB rooms in the league.  We need a talent infusion badly.  I feel Shedeur has the prerequisite talent athletically and as a passer, and I have since his college career.  Do I think he will actually be traded this offseason?  99% not likely.  On one hand, he’s proven to likely be the best QB on their roster.  On the other, they, and no other team wanted to take a chance on him for 4 rounds, so there has to be a price they would be willing to part ways with him for.  That’s why I brought up the Joe Milton situation as an example.  He was drafted to a team who took another rookie QB much earlier in the draft, spent his rookie year with them, then was traded before his second year for a relatively low value.  But, again, I also think the attention Shedeur naturally garners makes teams uncomfortable about rostering him if he’s not a starter. I don’t think we trade for him, and I don’t think the Browns trade him anywhere.  That being said, this is a message board.  Possibilities are fun to discuss and we’re here for discussion. also,I’m talking about a trade for a mid-late round pick for a talented QB/developmental QB on his rookie deal; that is the antithesis of the Matt Flynn situation.  He had a solid couple games in GB and Seattle broke the bank on him and he bombed big time.  That’s a valley of difference between the situations.
    • I'm content to see how the next 4 games play out. Mostly because there are no other options! These are certainly more important games than at the same time last year...let's just see what happens. It's exhausting constantly yelling about Bryce. He's here, will almost certainly be our starter next year as well. Nothing to do but sit back and watch, and have faith that DM and DC will make the best move available for the future success of the team. They've done a good job so far. Way better than anything else coming out of Carolina for the last 8 or so years.
    • That sounds like your baggage. Can he play or not? That is the question.
