lol. ASU cant beat Oregon. They are so far from the level of the Ducks its funny. You remember what happened in 19 minutes of football right? Game over. 43 unanswered points..... in your own house.

Mariota out of game b4 halftime.

And if you were asking about the sanctions, they lose one skolly for a couple years. 2 players. They already got credit for one year of sanctions as they didnt recruit a full class in 2013.

So basically, they arent giving 2 walk on kids that will never see playing time a skolly in 2014 and 2015 classes.

You guys postponed them so they weren't in effect from 2009 to 2011 seasons.

USC was already in decline. They'll be back. Things are cyclical. Some teams have short spikes and log dips (OSU) other like USC are the opposite. This 6 year dip isn't going to last.

Oregon and USC will be a hell of a rivalry for a while

This is 2013. The scholarship reductions started last season. USC was not already in decline. We had our worst season under Pete Carroll (9-4) since his first season. Many PAC schools would kill for a 9-4 season.

Then the sanctions were announced, we got a new coach, had some defections and went 8-5 (2010). The next season, with a full roster of 85, we went 10-2 and were ranked in the top 5. Then the schollie reductions hit and we have seen the results of that so far.

I have no doubt that USC will be back and I am looking forward to the future battles with the Ducks. I think we are in for some epic games.

Personally, I think it was about recruits more than anything else. I was in favor of letting him stay through the season and see if he can clean up his mess. However, we lost at least 1 top recruit after the Washington St. game and were looking at losing at least 1 or 2 more after the "Debacle in the Desert" vs. ASU.

Kiffin's greatest strength is as a recruiter and if he's losing recruits, there's really no point in keeping him, particularly when so many fans and alumni wanted him gone. 2 or 3 recruits would be no big deal under normal circumstances, heck USC is used to recruits decommitting or going elsewhere simply because with the level of talent we typically have, they know they won't see the field for at least a season or two. But when you are dealing with having 10 fewer scholarships than normal, every lost recruit can have a significant impact.

As for the timing, no question that it could have been better, but as they say: "Something that must be inevitably, should be done immediately".

Regardless of whether one blames Kiffin or blames the media (I blame both), the bottom line is that there was too much negativity surrounding the program and the vast majority of it was "Kiffin-based". The impact of the negativity on the players was obvious in pretty much every game we played prior to the last 2.

I am still scratching my head as to why USC thought that making Lane K would be the right choice to be HC for a major football powerhouse.I mean if you look at everywhere else he has been there was always a " black cloud " nearby. From his run-ins with the late Al Davis to his misplaced comment about Urban Meyer. Yea, I know that he was a part of the USC family and help to establish many offensive records, I think it was more of right place / right time scenario. Anyway, y'all stuck a fork in him and its time to move on.USC will still be able to recruit well without him.
Don't know if USC would consider the Boise State coach, but he has done more with less imo. The alumni should open up their checkbooks and let him name his price. Dude is only 49 and is a UC Davis grad so he has a lot of upside there. Maybe I should pass along some information to Cindy H. and she could bring it up when Pat is at the dinner table.

And Oregon still has a winning record vs USC this century.

Yall can have the past (20th century)

Oregon is laying claim to the 21st. Ya, the Carroll era was 21st. Still have a winning record vs SC and everyone else in the PAC.

And not an NC is sight!!

 

[trojanfan12]

lol, 20 of Oregon's 21 NATTTYs are track or cross country.

Beat that suckas!

USC has 27 track and field national championships.


I think that's more!!

Meh Sutton would of made a huge difference. ASU is on the rise though the only team in the Pac that had enough speed on defense to compete with your offense was ASU in the Erickson days it will be interesting to see if Graham will be able to get that same speed, its essential in stopping Oregon. Mamba I went crazy on that first fumble literally jumping on other ASU fans lol chest bumping so pumped, but then we all saw Sutton down and we all acted like it was over. Oregon fans next to me was like whos Sutton? LOL. I remember the game was over at halftime I went and got my 2nd round of chicken tenders and fries.......

If USC was a nation they'd have the sixth most Olympic Medals as any country.

(Ok not really related but still a cool stat).

oh they are in sight. Sniffing around them for the last 4 years while USC cant get out of their own way.

That football program TODAY is the biggest fucking joke in the Nation.

They are a laughing stock bro. And I ahve been telling you that for 2 years. But your blind homerism got in your way and you couldnt see what the rest of us saw. Kiffin is a joke and ruined that program.

Good luck with all those fancy 5 stars. Meanwhile lil ol Oregon will still be kicking your ass.

And in that Carrol era do you have even one Crystal Football in your trophy case? No you dont.

You have the same number of Crystal Balls as Oregon does since Carrol came to USC.

ZERO. Thats right. No NATTYS for USC through that glorious Carrol era. Nothing to show for all those fantastic teams.

thats awesome. I always root for PAC athletes in the Olympics.

That Duck fan that didnt know Sutton was a retard man. Criminy

Anyways. I think your team with Graham will own the South over the next few years with the Devils and Bruins fighting it out. Maybe Utah sneaks in there every once in a while, other than that... Dont see to many threats.

Kiffin was Mike Garrett's hire and even at that he was the 3rd choice. I think that he mainly got the job because of his ability to recruit (top 5 classes every year except this most recent and even this one was top 5 in "stars per recruit") and because he was an excellent OC and playcaller under Pete Carroll.

Kiffin is actually a very good coach. The problem is that he just wasn't ready for a job with USC's stature, especially given the sanctions. It may also be that he just isn't head coaching material. Not everyone is. Some guys are career assistants. Nothing wrong with that because top notch assistants are very valuable to any program.

As you said, the fork has been stuck in him, time to move on. I don't see us getting Peterson. I know he's turned us down once and you guys twice. Heck, I think he's turned down every PAC school at least once.

Yea the South sucks. Colorado is a huge pick up for basketball the conference is so fucking tough now for basketball. Utah needs to step up both Utah and Colorado need to get with the flow only one team does the power offense effectively and that is Stanford. Colorado you cant wear those ugly jerseys time for new jerseys, because recruits like em, and everyone in the Pac has mobile quarterbacks when will Colorado learn they need athletes, speed, and new jerseys? Utah has learned that I think there making the transition but Colorado needs to understand how to recruit in this conference.

 

[OregonDucks]

been reading since my post, no thank you posts yet. Lets not be selfish, PAC fans.

 

[WhiteMamba]

Kiffin is actually a very good coach.

Are you freaking kidding me???? STILL?

 

[JahiiCarson_SqodGeneral]

CU needs new unis aint no recruits wanna play in those, start running the spread and get some guys with 4.3-4.4 speed this is the Pac

You're right, USC doesn't have any "Natty's". USC has 2 National Championships from the Pete Carroll era. Not sure what a "Natty" is. Is it some term from Queer Eye?

And "sniffing around" for 4 years doesn't get you an NC. You can "sniff around" a hot chick too. Doesn't mean you're getting a date.

As for being a joke in college football......that is something Duck fans have a looooong history of being known for.
