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?

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
