Did Lincoln Riley And Caleb Williams Really Have Adversity?

Lincoln Riley talked about himself and Caleb Williams today: “Could you have gone through more as a player and a coach in a calendar year?”

Give me a break.

The fanboys will agree with Riley but I wouldn’t say they went through a lot of adversity. Riley’s making $10 million a year and living in a $17 million house in Palos Verdes. Williams has more NIL deals than just about any player in the country and was anointed the QB

Both made their own choice to leave Oklahoma for USC.

If you want to talk about adversity look at USC players who had Lane Kiffin, Ed Orgeron (interim), Clay Helton (interim), Steve Sarkisian and Helton as head coaches in a four-year career. Or the offensive linemen who had five different position coaches from 2012-2017.

That was adversity.

  1. There are different levels of adversity, Scotty

    Wiley could have held out for a $200-Million contract instead of the measly $110M, and then bought himself a real house for $30M.

    Players operating under Sark & Helton underwent something more like waterboarding.

  4. Alumni clubs returning under the Student Body Right umbrella. They are looking to give $50k to each player when do charitable work. Take that Folt, and go figure how to spin that one.

    1. The rebellion is very encouraging and it seems to be feeding on itself. The fraternities are dropping and now we have this rogue organization to push the alumni. Maybe Folt was the right hire because someone more moderate and reasonable wouldn’t have provided the incentive to fight on.

  5. Come ‘on wolf!!!! Stop with the sideshow drama. Get off the couch and track down info relevant to what’s taking place on the practice field.

      After Pete gave Wolf the heave-ho the guy had to start all over from scratch.

      I believe Scott is in the process of building his army of insiders, but it has only been 13-years since Pete left.

  6. Wolf does have a point Clownsters. You know who has a real bitch, it’s the tenured Clown U professors. I mean Riley gets $110 million contract to coach a lousy FB team, while the yeoman, academic professors get $$$ crumbs.

    How many bozo professors (Nikias excepted) live in $17 million cribs? Just asking for a friend.

    2. How many guesses will you give me J.O.?

      — I say none unless the professor’s name is Rockefeller or Trump

      Besides, I would not want to be Wiley, or any football coach for that matter. The idea of coaching teenagers to win at any cost is not my idea of an ideal work-life.

        When I have ever said, I regretted voting for Biden? Someone had to fix the fucking pain, death, and suffering trump left behind. It was going to be an extremely difficult task, and Biden is incrementally succeeding. If you don’t want to pay less for your meds, that’s a fucking you problem

  7. Riley did not say adversity. He just said “a lot”. Uproot your family from Norman to LA, find and buy a house, oh and completely rebuild a college football program. I would say they put in “a lot” of hard work and done a great job and it is paying off for them. But all the poor bitter reporter can focus on is money.
