"74-18 is an impressive record, but a case can be made that his teams regress each season," Farrell said. "He inherited a loaded OU program from Bob Stoops, made some playoff appearances but fell off in 2020 and 2021. And with a Heisman quarterback, he’s only 19-8 through two seasons at USC, and his team took a big step backward last year."

The trajectory is important. We saw what happened with Helfrich. We saw players that played their best as a freshman and only regressed.

 

My rational self says USC should have a good season with a new excellent DC and some decent talent, but reality is anybody exposed to LR for more than a year regressed. Grinch was a fine DC, but LR just wore him down to incompetence.

 

Honestly, the trajectory is down for USC, so it's not out of the question they finish 4 and 8, falling apart as the season wears on like our Ducks did in 2016, where the internal rotting of the culture fully exposed itself.

💯 This was one of the many heart-breaking truths that made the Helfrich years to disappointing.
