Joey McGuire won’t be there for long.

They have deep pockets and play in his conference of choice. Just spitballing

Lincoln Riley destroyed Oklahoma’s program in the short term and underwhelmed at USC. We are insane if we even interview him

ETA to those downvoting this -- he got caught recruiting for USC while coaching for Oklahoma early early early in the season. A bunch of key players and recruits mysteriously transferred to USC and the results they got were.... USC.

but theres something else going on at USC that is keeping them from really performing. There must be some behind the scenes bullshite, especially if this is true.


Uhhh ya think? The California commie Karens that run that school take glee in the failing of their athletics.

Can't be true. This board is adamant that he went to USC because he was scared to coach in the SEC even though this board was also adamant that he was going to be the LSU coach.

Would be shocking to see him leave LA for Gainesville or Baton Rouge

His buyout is $78 million. $67 million after this season.

He thought he was going to be coaching in the PAC12, with an easier path to the playoff. Instead he's logging frequent flyer miles in a top heavy B1G with indifferent fans and a disengaged admin.

If he's got a fight with heavyweights either way, why not go back east for bigger money, crowds, and exposure.

Josh is hoping that OU head coach Venables drops these last three against Bama, MO and LSU and their AD terminates him so he can go back home. If OU beats Bama, then Heupel is more in-play.

USC fans will be thrilled if true. 67 million buyout, and they’re not ecstatic with the product.

I would stay far away from Stinkin Riley. He was handed a title ready team by Bob and pissed it away. He had 3 Heisman like QBs and still couldn't get it done. 2 won it and 1 was runner up.

His teams got progressively worse each year. He left the team gutted and then tried to snake out. It was discussed how he might have been throwing games to avoid playoffs so he could leave earlier. If you go back and watch games with that info you can see many head scratching play calls.

Then tried to leave without talking to players. Bob found out while golfing and called LR up and told him to get his arse to the players and tell them like a man.

There were many other things but he is a snake. I would stay far away from him if I was LSU.

Not LSU I pray


Amazing what four years will do to a fan base opinion about a coach

We were all super excited four years ago, thinking Riley was coming to LSU

And look at all the down votes now
