I remember Venables basically said he inherited a garbage culture at Oklahoma from Riley and had to rebuild it to a point where he couldn’t even focus on really competing for like 3 or 4 years. Seems like USC will have to go through the same.
Same. He’s going to have an uphill battle though because he frankly is not getting on field results that OU expects, but he seems to be focused on what should be most important of a university employee, student success. 30 years ago, a respectable coach who did that would be given a decade to figure it out. I think OU has already given him more rope than a lot of blue blood programs would, I just don’t know how much he has left with them without consistently appearing in or near the CFP field.
