I predict this time in 2 years he will be fired

USC Fired two of Clay Heltons bosses.

The big name hire that Colin Cowherd knew about name must have been leaked.

Apparently you are unfamiliar with how leaks work.

And that means what exactly? He's managed to stay on staff despite Kiffin (who hired him) and Sark (who retained him) getting fired. Seems like he's been doing something right.

Chip Tells USC 'No Thanks'

Chip Kelly is not going to be in the NFL too much longer.
He should have taken that USC job.

Funny the stories and rumors flying around. Chip says he's never spoken to USC and that he wasn't even in Philly on Friday.

I think AD Pat Haden's job is on the line with this one.

The last 2 coaches you mention were Haden hires.

To be fair this guy has stepped up not once but twice when USC needed him to when the chips were down and did an outstanding job both times. He has been around the program enough that people know he is both a quality person and can coach football.

I think this is a good hire and quite honestly while it was an easy hire the guy won the job on the field through performance and the team, fans and administration know exactly what they are getting. This is a smart move and one that should pay off in the future.

Besides the Helton is an Auburn guy and you can't do better than that.

Now I'm confused. @4down20 says that we're fucked because he's an Auburn guy.

Kiffin was hired by Mike Garrett. Sark and now Helton are Haden's hires. Although, to be fair, Haden tied himself to Kiffin when he didn't fire him immediately after that 7-6 debacle.

Go with 4down20 if you want I'm sure he could use a friend.

But I prefer your prediction.

Thanks for the correction.

they do have Kiffin

 

[Lakers+USC=#1]

Why the hell are people so obsessed with USC not hiring a "Big" name? Big names don't automatically bring you championships. Did we all forget, thats USC's last successful coach, was a "No Name"?

Well to his credit he realized Auburn sucked and transferred to Houston.

So they might win the Pac12 south again next year based on that.

If you take away the name and just look at resume as far as a 1st year HC.... They could do much worse, USC recruits itself so.. no REAL need for a flashy name for a HC.

won his division
crushed who many thought was the best fit (KW @ Utah)
destroyed their rival UCLA.

They surround him with good assistants now and USC will be fine imo.
