re: Lincoln Riley

Your first sentence is accurate. The rest of your post makes no sense whatsoever: “Preferably a shitty school with shitty players.”

Lincoln Riley is already the HC at Oklahoma. He was SMART to “preferably” align himself with a “non-shitty” school, with “non-shitty” talent when he chose to accept the OC job that Stoops offered to him in 2015, knowing that he could climb the ladder fast and parlay that into being a HC one day. He’s earned every bit of coaching success that he’s had so far, and hasn’t been handed anything. If he wasn’t good enough to be a HC then he would still be a coordinator.
