DrJacksPlaidPants Moderator No. 1 Share Posted November 12 This might be just what Jennifer Cohen needs to get rid of him. “As a result of the violations, the parties also agreed that football head coach Lincoln Riley violated head coach responsibility rules." USC fined, put on probation for 2022, 2023 coaching violations - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM USC's football program has been fined $50,000 and placed on a one-year probation due to a violation of "on- and off-field coaching activities" during the 2022 and 2023 seasons, the NCAA...

jrw Moderator No. 2 Share Posted November 12 A $50k fine is a lot less to pay than whatever multi-million-dollar buy-out Riley has. Besides, he's a gift to the rest of the conference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 3 Share Posted November 12 Probably not... I don't think USC is ready to pay out Riley and I think they'll give him another year to get his act together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirklandduck Moderator No. 4 Share Posted November 12 Sounds like slap on the wrist punishment. Interesting that they have 6 extra "coaches" but no improvement of their play lol 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This might be the loophole Cohen needs to get rid of him and his contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a jrw stated earlier Riley is doing a great job for the rest of the B1G and no other team should want USC to do anything. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Ducky No. 8 Share Posted November 13 I think they should keep him. But they could maybe pick up N-O cheap, maybe next season. What’s the rush. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck No. 9 Share Posted November 13 I hear the Georgia Southern coach has turned that program around and is a hot commodity. Maybe they should hire that guy? Jeff Monkey, undefeated Army coach came from that program. SC will probably just hire some professor on campus. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 10 Share Posted November 13 Could they threaten to fire him and renegotiate his contract? If they can legally give him the axe, he would pretty much have to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

INAL, so I don't know, but it sounds like something that could result lots of billable hours on both sides, with the risk of the school losing.

DrJacksPlaidPants Author Moderator No. 14 Share Posted November 13 If I’m Jennifer Cohen I wait for Bama fans to lose patience with DeBoer and get him back. That could be as little as 2 weeks. But, it could be longer if he wins the SEC or a playoff game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
