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?

      Smith Sr. & Zierlein discuss their top 10 WRs

      By top dawg · Posted

      Any QB worth his weight in gold is going to get his guys the ball. Of course he has to have the protection, coaching and experience to do that. Moreover, it has yet to be determined what type of situation this is for a rookie wideout. The most important thing that will determine that is coaching.

      Smith Sr. & Zierlein discuss their top 10 WRs

      By rayzor · Posted

      I watched it this afternoon and I thought some of the best discussions was before it even got to the players. One thing that really jumped out to me was when Smitty was asked about how things have changed since he played and the thing he talked about was how when he played and going back to Jerry Rice says, the #1 targeted or looked to receiver was always the X and there's still a lot of people who's minds are still stuck in that idea. But what has happened is that the, what he calls, the F receiver...the flanker...is now the go to guy. You need the X to try and get safeties out of the box, but the QB is now looking for his flanker most of the time. Lots of good discussions all through it, but for some reason the ones involving Ladd, Corley, and Leggette was the most interesting. Ladd was how he may be best fit for just the slot, but he's the best slot guy in the draft and he's just a guy who gets open and doesn't drop the ball. Corley and Leggette are playmakers who are at a risk of being pigeonholed. Leggette is too stiff to be a slot guy but he can do things like Metcalf. Corley is likely to be used much as he was in college, as the big playmaker you just get the ball in his hands however you can, but he's got a lot of room for development as a receiver. It's just good football talk all the way through

      I'd resigned myself to 2000 and never.   Cautiously optimistic based on this off season that 2026 is a real possibility.
