See this thread: "Why would Lincoln Riley leave OU to take over this dumpster fire?"

I’d be happy with Riley but $11-$12M is outfrickingrageous for a coach with less accomplishments than the one we fired.

We made Saban the 3rd highest paid coach in CFB when he hadn't done shite. People cried then too.

Because the new TV money will kick in soon enough, and it will grow EXPONENTIALLY after Texas and OU join the league… We’re simply getting ahead of the curve with our offers.

Exactly. The TV money and now with internet gambling it’s going to be huge. Riley is the best available guy. He’ll get a defensive coordinator. We’ve come a long way from thinking is was Tucker or Franklin. Franklin lost to the Fighting Illini today.

We are ahead of the curve and that’s what you get with a real AD. He knows what kind of money is coming.

Well the Game Day crew this morning said Woodward needs to go big. Pulling Riley from OU would be gargantuan.

OU might be in Oklahoma but OU is still a respected traditional powerhouse in college football. They aren’t a rinky dink program.

nobody said that

when OU moves to the SEC, can the HC compete for and win tiles at OU? we know you can at LSU. Three different guys have done it

Not your fault people can't read. You clearly stated that in the post it wasn't Kiffin.

Much ado about nothing. Riley isnt leaving OU because he knows he can and will win it all with Caleb Williams.

Not only that but OU also has deep pocket boosters and no way they let us outbid them. Vol makes a great point about the tv deal but the OU AD is just as aware of that as Woody.

Would love for this rumor to come to fruition, but its not happening.

I'm with you I think OU will match our offer. I don't think Caleb is a big selling point for Riley though as he would have a full cupboard with QBs here. Who knows maybe by some miracle he can get Manning here too. That said, can't see OU letting themselves get outbid even with crazy talk money.

You parroted the same thing about Jimbo when he was at FSU, if 11+ a year and the top coaching destination in the country won't get him here, nothing will

TBL I love you as a poster but I don't understand your sources.

A week ago you stated it's Franklin then Tucker as next choice...

I know you also said you aren't as close to this hire as O in 2016 but someone is feeding you crap if you go from Franklin to Tucker and now Riley as the point man.
