Why Riley Failed

[PasadenaTrojan]

1. lazy recruiter,  Poor player evaluations and favoritism. Only guys on team know.

Malachi Nelson, super Mario. These were 5 stars that weren’t.

He literally wouldn’t go to Bosco and Mater Dei games? Are you serious? I know CA stars don’t all work out but man you have to build a fence around SoCal.

2. poor management of transfer portal. Too many good players walked and too many subpar players came. Hes way upside down here.

Minus RB room only wins have been Jordan A and Caleb. way more losses here. Brought in duds not dudes and few have left who have been good pieces.

3. His D’s can’t stop the run. He’s not the DC but he runs the practice

4. He’s not a great run designer. A lot of his yards come because 1) he runs alot so stats will “happen” 2) he runs alot when he should pass and vice versa. Ok it looks good on a stat page but when 3rd and 20 and we get 15 the D is happy to get off the field. It inflates his run games success. When we need a game sealing drive or run he can’t do it

5. He’s not a closer. Too many close losses. This could issue #1 but it also is driven by issues above. Its when it gets exposed

6. he can’t get another stud QB. Not impressed here

1 no longer an issue and the talent is now coming   I don’t totally disagree but that’s been fixed

 

2 disagree.  I think you have seen some real winners here.  Gentry.  All the rb  some safeties like bishop.  And obvious failures.  Portal is a mixed bag.  USC reflects that

 

3  grinch Lynn Patterson.  Rob Ryan.  All in and out fast.  Defense is a system and a commitment to it.  I think the usc fan base wanting to plug in a new coach every year for what they wanted and it’s failed.

4 I agree but for different reasons.  I think he’s a finesse runner and usc OL is not as good as advertised.  The ability run when the other team knows you have to run is key.  Michigan can. USC cant.  So I mostly agree here

5   I have some reasons for this.  More later

6 totally disagree.  He’s had a long list his career and Maiava is very good.  Moss was good.  Williams will

be good to very good.  And this Texas kid might by Kyler Murray.
