Lincoln Riley Paid $11.5 Million In 2023

USC coach Lincoln Riley was credited with a little more than $11.5 million in total compensation for the 2023 calendar year, the school’s new federal tax returns show according to USA Today.

The document also showed Riley has the benefit of a housing loan that has a balance due of $3.43 million.

Athletic director Jennifer Cohen was credited with “nearly $3.1 million in total compensation from USC in 2023, according to the new return, plus a housing loan the original amount of which was $3.8 million.”

BOTTOM LINE: Riley is stealing from USC. He is the fourth-highest paid coach in the nation and has shown nothing in three years. He also has a defensive coordinator getting more than $2 million and a general manager getting $1 million.

  2. Riley makes a lot of money. So does Jen Cohen and the coaches. So what. We knew that he signed a lucrative contract. USC paid the market rate for Riley. LSU and others were willing to pay just as much.

      1. I doubt that Riley went to USC to avoid the SEC. I think that he thought he could replicate Pete Carroll’s model – dominate forever.

      3. He left Oklahoma after they got accepted to join the SEC, the guy doesn’t want to play one tough game after another. John McKay, John Robinson, Pete Carroll took on all comers, Sir Lincoln Riley wants out of playing ND

  3. KAM: The Pious Former FBI Director James Comey Just Call for Trump To Be Murdered. It doesn’t get much more desperate and deranged than this. A former FBI director  called for the assassination of his political enemy  the current president of the United States, Donald Trump. At least that looks like the message being telegraphed by the nation’s former top lawman on his social media accounts. 

    After two public attempts on Trump’s life and another one foiled in the planning stages by Democrats, you’d think that the former top lawman of the country would be a bit more circumspect before using his social media accounts to call for the murder of the president. But things are apparently not going well for James Comey. It appears that Trump is still living rent-free in his head. 

    DON: Comey’s especially b&^%hurt after Trump 45 fired him following the FBI director’s blackmail attempt on Trump via the fake Steele dossier in the Russia collusion information operation the FBI, CIA, and DOJ ran on him. So he wants Trump 47 dead.

    1. Comey called for the assassination of the President. The director of National Intelligence and Homeland Security and the Secret Service want him behind bars. Should we tell them about Cowardly Gabby’s posts?

  5. The brainless rah rahs are happy with Sir Lincoln of Riley’s 7-6 seasons as long as the tailgate parties feature their favorite Nine Layer Dip and they can wave their cardinal and gold pom poms when the Trojan Marching Band comes by before the game.

  6. SC doesn’t have much time to make this right. One more mediocre season and fans are going to begin to tune out. Remember when the bad losses started to pile up under Helton, and he still kept his job? I found myself thinking “well, if the school doesn’t give a s**t, then why should I?” Same thing could happen here, and I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s thought that.

    1. Hard to believe we all have hung in for 15 years, with just 3 good seasons, and two of those ended with awful losses, one to Tulane.
