When will coaches realize that doing a hand gesture for your new school makes you look like Lewis Skolnick? Riley looks like a fool and Kelly's L wasn't any better. Awful.

TARGET MARKET

What is dispositive here is that Riley only has to persuade
85 players on a roster
Rich fat cat SC alums (these guys put up the Cowlings building, they have chutzpah)
kids throughout the mother lode in southern California football

Lincoln Riley doesn't care about
my vote
your vote
South Bend.

Same with kelly

his target market is those crazy fans from Red Stick and guys like
the daddy of Walker Howard
the daddy of the two Ausberrys

TARGET MARKET

know it or die

USC's kicker just entered the transfer portal. Yeah, that's not a typo, their kicker is leaving (lack of playing time?) They now have more players in the portal than they have 2022 commitments.

I guess the 85 man limit isn't going to be an issue for Troy.

Our punter is leaving, also not a typo.

Watching the game last night got me worried about Caleb Williams as USC QB the next two years. Postgame comments didn't exactly assure Sooner fans he's be back. And if he's leaving you know where he going.

Oh well, their OLine and Defense will still suck.

They're always going to have a good QB and good skill position players. They currently have Jackson Dart as their new hotness. Personally, I think Williams stays put, but we'll see. There will certain be some long drawn out discussions with him and NIL money involved with where he goes next.

Caleb's 100% going there, but it would be *breathtakingly* funny if CJ Williams shit on Notre Dame's QB room as a commit, praised Dart getting the ball at USC, dumped ND for USC and then didn't get to play with Dart.

So SC has now dumped two guys in one month (Ddart and Solvis) better than most teams have recruited in 10 years.

Crazy world we’re in

USC has no QB in the 2022 class and their depth chart is now one guy: freshman Miller Moss. Will he be interested in sticking around if Caleb Williams comes over?

Freshman Flex TE Michael Trigg just announced he's entering the portal. I'd bet he ends up on a NFL roster at some point with his size / athleticism combo if he can stay healthy.

Think the kid could be helpful in the passing game bc he's more WR than TE at this point but doubt ND would pursue.

Without looking, I will guess that Dart is a SoCal kid who will limit his options to the P12 or SEC

Simply two years ago, USC never would've been able to do something like this. They are literally going to take their terrible roster and sign a dozen transfers and overhaul it overnight into *at minimum* a top 10 offensive team. It's such a joke.

Vegas was prepared. One of the sport's book has them at 25-1 to win the natty next year which is like 6th or 7th lowest odds.

Meh. Lincoln landed better transfers to OU last year than he has so far this year. A okay OT from UVA, two talented but last year 3/4 WRs in Bynum/M Williams and Caleb Williams. That’s while losing Dart/Slovis and Trigg.

Id be more worried if he starts revamping with some SEC or at least Big 12 lineman but this actually hasn’t been much different than what any team could do this offseason. Turning around the 2021 recruiting class and guys like Mario Williams spells return for the future more than 2022 IMO.

Wonder how CJ Williams feels about Mario Williams transferring to USC.

Lincoln Riley comes across to me as the type of coach who treats a kid like he is the flavor of the week and moves on.
