Opt outs shouldn’t be allowed with NIL a thing now. Just not even worth these games being played at this point it seems

100%. These players are paid money. There should be a penalty if you opt out

Tanook Hines looked great despite the USC loss.  He’s really fast and pretty physical as well.  Wish he was a Horn.

Hines jumps off the screen.

Will be interesting to see how Riley fares at USC in the next few years.   Casual LA fans are going to expect him to turn that #1 recruiting class into an instant contender but do they get over the hump and into the CFP next year?  How much can they add in the portal after going all in on their HS class?

It’s wild to me that he was so much better than Lockett or Ffrench. They couldn’t get on the field and this kid lights it up.

They won’t make the playoffs until riley can figure out how to put a competent defense on the field.

I read something years ago about the Air Raid.  I know Riley isn't running the AirRaid per se, but he was steeped in that tradition.  It's not merely an offensive system, it's a philosophy of football based on offensive reps and it's not conducive to sound defensive play.  USC looks to have some impressive athletes on defense, but I agree, it will be interesting to see if he they can play competent defense.

He’s gone through i don’t know how many coordinators now and they still can’t figure it out. Like you’re saying i think it’s just apart of the way he runs his programs at this point since it was an issue at oklahoma as well.
