He's scared to coach in the SEC. Yeah he'll be in the playoffs but he won't win a Natty there. Not saying I blame him but you gotta have balls to coach in the SEC. Period.

Running away from the big time. His soft brand at OU is over with sec membership and he knows it. So, where does that soft brand fit? West coast baby!

For real. Didn’t want the LSU pressure and OU will know what SEC heat is like in a year or two.

If he takes the USC job over LSU, he's making a huge mistake.

Ugh no he’s not. That is the smart move. He knows hell get skulldragged in the SEC. The pac 12 plays no defense just like the big 12. Plus he knows he will outbtalent everyone outside of Oregon. He’s going to kill it over there

I did say that. 100%. Has nothing to do with his decision to pass on the SEC.

He doesn't want to compete with the SEC. Im not sure I blame him. Go west and dominate recruiting and coast into the playoffs without the SEC gauntlet.

Riley is soft. He wanted nothing to do with the SEC whether at OU or LSU. I guess getting eliminated 4 times from the CFP by SEC teams sunk in. That 63-28 arse whipping was something he didn’t want any part if again. Pussy.

He doesn’t want a title. PAC 12 has no success in football anymore.

Little Lincoln scared of being in the SEC. He gets USC back rolling again like back in the day it’s and easy road to BCS championship series.

The one thing SW is good at is getting coaches paid. Look at the deals that have popped up this year after CEO was let go.

What? 2.5 million for a Women’s Basketball Coach for a program that lost 4.5 million dollars last year with a coach who made “only” $700,000? Now the loss will increase by another 1.5 million just in her salary alone? You don’t think that was a good financial move? Well it wasn’t. Now Woody is running around with a blank check trying to give money away but spent so much time chasing Jimbo he missed on other viable candidates. What a Joke.
