USC Trojans football head coach Lincoln Riley joined former Penn State tight end Adam Breneman on the latest episode of Next Up.
Lincoln Riley gets candid about his coaching journey from his early days as a graduate assistant at Texas Tech, how he shaped Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray into Heisman winners at Oklahoma, and his shocking exit from OU followed by the leap to USC.
Coach Riley also reflects on his first two years building USC football, the coaching changes he’s made on the defensive side of the ball, Caleb Williams, and much much more.
We noted earlier this month that “USC football is going through a rough time. Other fan bases and analysts across the country are making note of it. You can imagine what Oklahoma football fans and bloggers are saying right now about Lincoln Riley and the Trojans, but they’re also noting how Brent Venables and his recruiting strategy stand in contrast to what Riley is doing in Los Angeles.”
Lincoln Riley is facing the toughest period of his coaching career. When you watch this interview below, it is worth asking yourself if the things Riley says feel like statements he will be able to follow through on, or if he is just saying what people want to hear. (It could be both.)
