I’ll admit I wanted LR the most

It’s easy to say he’s soft, a little bitch, etc for taking the USC job (he is btw). I’m upset bc if we really were negotiating with him, then it was in bad faith by LR. But, reality is he’s a good coach and we would have been pumped if he came here.

The only sliver of hope is that Woody’s been so quiet that it’s possible this was detected sooner than we believe and efforts for plan B have been underway for some time. I know doubting woody now is easy, but the man really is the epitome of professional, I trust he will make the best of this.

Also ask yourself, someone who can manipulate this large of a group to stay this quiet/misdirected most likely doesn’t get manipulated in return. He seems too cunning to get caught off guard completely. At least we hope..

Outside of the message boards no proof we were negotiating or interested.

Yeah agreed, the details are all hearsay from “insiders” & podcasters. This is why I’m hopeful bc it seems real leaks would get picked up by legit media members.

Who wants a coach that O hung 60 on?

I wouldn't have minded Riley at all.

But keep in mind, every hire is a risk except for Lord Saban. No way around it.

I put Riley in the grouping of low risk. Along with several others. It was a short list. As long as we are able to stay in that grouping it's all that matters.

Yes, the name matters. But checking boxes and mitigating that risk matters more.
