Example 18,364,739,274,646 of why @1to392831weretaken is dialed in.1to392831weretaken said:Since I'm here to beat my chest, I recall a time when EVERYONE.gif on Hardcore Husky was pissed that USC made the "big dick hire," and UW "settled" for DeBoner at a paltry sum. My response: "Uh, you could burn through three DeBoers and still be in less debt than USC. I'd take my chances getting that hire right with three tries of cheap guys than spending $121 million on a guy who's never put a successful defense on the field in his life and who thinks Alex Grinch is a fine DC."
I was roundly criticized.
My point still stands: If Riley isn't the guy, USC is fuuuuuuuuucked. Se also: Mel Tucker. We're in this Bizarro World in which schools intentionally overpay for coaches just to demonstrate their commitment. It's fucking stupid. I'd like to see schools get back to pay structures that are more incentive based than just handing a hundred million dollars of guaranteed money to some chucklefuck.

Are you trying to say that there is a tendency to overreact on HCH?1to392831weretaken said:Since I'm here to beat my chest, I recall a time when EVERYONE.gif on Hardcore Husky was pissed that USC made the "big dick hire," and UW "settled" for DeBoner at a paltry sum.

Hey fuckoff.1to392831weretaken said:a hundred million dollars of guaranteed money to some chucklefuck.
But for real though, I don't remember posting it much but I had the same take on Riley to USC. It wasn't the best of times to criticize unless one was ready to argue about it and fend off the dooging label. Most were enamored with the sizzle at the time and most of the positive feelings about Deboer were squelched by the uproar over UW going Mtn West/cheap while SC big dicked a blue blood.
Hiring him guaranteed USC some level of relevance as they head to the B1G, the ability to keep bringing in Heisman candidates on offense, and ten years of bad defense that will never allow them to win anything important.
They did win another Heisman though. I guess that's great. -
