USC coach Lincoln Riley has paid $17.2 million for a house in . . . wait for it . . . Palos Verdes.
Of course.
Riley purchased the “Roessler Estate” named after the first mayor of Palos Verdes, Fred Roessler. It’s not far from Palos Verdes Intermediate School (half a mile to be exact).
You knew Riley was going to be part of the USC South Bay Mafia. The only question was whether he would move to Manhattan Beach or Palos Verdes.
Riley is the third straight USC coach to live in Palos Verdes.
The original price of the house was $19.5 million. The house sits on 3.17 acres with seven bedrooms, 12 bathrooms and more than 13,000 square feet of living space.
InsideUSC with Scott Wolf 
Good choice. Some of the best schools in So Cal, and much more space, more trees/greenery, and less congestion/craziness than Manhattan Beach. Ocean breezes, probably 325 days out of the year in which the high temp is between 65 and 80, low humidity, a far cry from Norman, OK or Louisiana.
A bit of a commute, however. Maybe USC threw in a driver for him.

If I had 7 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms I would only have to make up my bed once a week, and clean the bathroom once every 2-weeks. Now that would be the life!
Seriously, I would rather have a 2 bedroom, 2 bath 1000 foot apartment right on the beach 100 feet from the water’s edge than Wiley’s off the beach mansion. Oh, I did have that, for 32-years, and there is nothing like the sound of the waves putting you to sleep every night.

Michael: Just saying the President position at USC is the very top, and in most organizations it’s the top paying job. My concern is Carol will see this house, and sue USC based on equal opportunity in that she is an underpaid female employee with more responsibility, and should be paid equal or higher than the football coach, or the University should purchase a similar house of equal market value.
