That is what other insiders said. Expected to announce in early afternoon (west coast time) at coaches meeting. Mike Riley targeted as HC. USC expected tp have coach by Wednesday. Del Rio is Garrett's distant second candidate. (He keeps a short list of candidates with whom he talks to now and again about "if there is ever an opening for HC).) S

everal top recruits have stated they are staying. A few are waiting and not enrolling Monday. Also, expect pressure ($$$$ pressure) from huge fat cat boosters to either limit Garrett's duties as AD or have him agree to have Coach O on board. He vetoed PC's recent request, which pushed their,already, acrimonious relationship tothe brink.

Most think USC wil be fine. Time for a quick O and D coaching overhail alway.

They should be. He's been the best coach in the conference for awhile now.

there seems to be some deep seeded hatred for Riley.

Anyone know the back story on this?

I don't get it. He was the OC here and has strong ties to USC, turned OSU into a solid program when they hadn't even had a winning record for decades and he might be the best at talent development in the country.

The only real concern I see is recruiting and that's hard to judge because he's in Corvallis

Too bad LSUintheNW isn't here to tell us all about how Mike Riley would never leave Oregon State because he was so grateful to even get that job back after he failed in the NFL.

this is an innovative strategy employed by no other university BTW for planning ahead.

Reading that blog if you substitute Miles name for PC it was just like reading the rant.

PC is a CEO can't coach just recruits. His assistants brought us all those wins not him.

If you're a USC fan you have to be happy. One Pete can't get it done with the best talent in they country. Unless you like winning the rose bowl every year (well not this one) and getting beat by a shitty conf opponent at least once a year.

Pete will be out of the NFL in two years, book it.

What Riley has done at OSU is ridiculous. Too many fans get hungup on recruiting and the hype of CFB but don't know the half of it.

If USC hires Riley it will be a grandslam hire. It's hard to imagine them getting much better in the future but I could see it under Riley although the Pac 10 improving as a whole will hurt them. Riley is an unreal coach who would be scary at USC, moreso than Carroll IMO.
