Clay Helton and USC Pessimism

BaldwinIV

Why is everyone clowning on Helton? He whipped us good in '16 (mostly due to Browning, but still), won a Rose Bowl year 1 and then year 2 goes to the Cotton. 21-6, 15-3 record as full time head coach.

Everyone acts like he's on the hot seat.

Why?

RaceBannon

Lost to Bama, tOSU like a red headed step child

SC don't care about the rest

And they will struggle this year

Because We(rSC) have standards.

Hope that helps.

When you sleep walk into top 5 recruiting classes every year and have your pick of recruits. You should win the PAC 12 every year.

Winning the Rose Bowl doesn't fall under those standards?

lmao

Hope that helps.

They also had a god a QB for the last two years

Mosster47

The playoff should be Bama, Clemson, tOSU, and SC every year.

We are coming up on year five of this thing and the Trojans are yet to get an invite. It's fucking pathetic.

I get the part about the hot seat, because yeah, like USC man.

But why are DAWG fans talking shit? He came into Husky Stadium and reminded us who daddy is and won the conference the next year.

New board motto?

UW_Doog_Bot

In SC land the reasoning is something along the lines of even a "par" level coach should have been able to do what Helton has with Darnold and surrounding talent if not better. Now that Darnold is gone they are looking to see which way the wind is blowing and if Helton wasn't just being propped up.

Yes I think that's the point. They won 10 games because darnold made plays. Their scheme and execution was shit with superior talent. A lot of people expect it to fall apart without an elite playmaker at qb. Usc shouldn't get their ass kicked by Norte dame Alabama and Ohio state the way they did either.

All that being said I wouldn't talk shit about it as a uw fan. Sling blade had a lot of success before the wheels came off too.

They beat furd and STDU that fucking owned us. So that means we sucked too

The USC loss in 2016 was a shitty loss. Sam Darnold was throwing footballs into pringles cans that night. Jake Browning shit his pants (nothing new but still) and our offensive gameplan was to avoid letting Gaskin touch the ball.

It was a total disaster. Helton fucking blows. USC should have clown shoed the conference last year with who they had and it took A David Shaw shitty 4th down call to squeak by the championship.

Getting stomped at ND 49-14 in prime time doesn't help either.
