Agree. Give Helton a 5 year deal tomorrow.

Nah, Haden will announce Mike Riley and Brady Hoke as co-head coaches. Dream team, babby.

? USC had a great game that night, played all 4 qrtrs and outclassed Utah. Exactly what they should do considering USC has more 5 star players on their team than Utah has had in the history of their program.
Ell oh freaking ell if USC actually hires Clay Helton. You've got to be kidding me, right?

Well, if he manages to win out, and win the bowl game, I mean, what is the knock on him besides that he's never been a HC before?
FWIW, I highly suspect he will lose the next two and then we will be in a shitty bowl against a fired up mid-major who would like nothing better than to take down a "name" program like USC, and then we can finally liberate @goblue96's houseguest and bring him to LA.
Not now, whitey. Let them believe.
This was my gut feeling when people first starting saying it, and deep down, I still don't feel like he's the right guy.
But, like Basin said, what if he wins out? Resurrecting a doomed season and beating UCLA would make a lot of alums happy.
I'm hoping a lot of back room discussions are already being held, to figure out who will be available, who might be available, who can be pried away with an obscene offer, etc. Let me preface this by saying that he won't be, but, if someone like an Urban Meyer could be wooed to LA, then no, you're not giving Helton the job even if he wins out and beats the Bruins by 800 points. The concern is that it doesn't seem like an top level coach will be available, and if your potential candidates all come with question marks, then I could see Helton getting the gig. At least they 'know' him and he's won at Sc already.

He doesn't understand the USC program.

Petros is a fucking traitor. Fuck that fucking fuck.

Lol.
UCLA fans think Petros is all Cardinal and Gold and that he talks up the Trojans 99% of the time on his radio show that is on UCLA's syndicated station.
USC fans think Petros is a traitor because he's honest about the program and Haden.
Shits sad.

Most of the time I agree that he's just being honest about the program. Sometimes I think he pushes too far to 'prove' he's not a homer or something.
I haven't listened to their show in a long time; does he still go off about how Leinart's a douche? Leinart didn't want to go on his show like 10 years ago, and Petros has been pissed about it and talking shit ever since.

Takeaways from the USC game: are we only capable of beating wack squads, or is this just a defensive issue?
I love Helton's commitment to the run game, but either he doesn't have any faith in Kessler's arm or Kessler doesn't
RoJo is the man, so is Justin Davis.
Helton's future has to be less certain now, but dammit that was all on the defense. An FCS QB threw five TDs against us. Lame.
Great PRTD by Jackson to bring us back. Shame the defense squandered that opportunity. Run defense was pretty good, pass defense not so much.

Lol. Was about to comment that this game pretty much absolved us of any potential controversy over deciding to retain Helton or send him on his way

What is his rep as a recruiter? Honestly curious.
But FWIW, I think the Clay Helton experiment is basically over. He has been measured, and found to be wanting. UCLA gon beat us by 3 TDs, methinks.

Neither will come to pass.
Are you trolling or being serious? Juju has about 24 different niggling injuries and is nowhere near full speed. We're on our 8th string center and 2nd or 3rd string guard. The center is the big problem; most of the snaps are somewhere between bad and awful. We had stolen the momentum in Oregon heading into the 4th, and I thought there was a decent chance we'd overcome the 10 point deficit. Next play.....shitty snap, fumble. Ducks score immediately. Game over. That MUST get cleaned up to beat UCLA.

UCLA can't be afraid to throw the ball far downfield. USC is one of the worst long pass defenses in recent memory. Stanford, ND, Oregon all shredded over 10 YPA. Is UCLA blocking well at all for Rosen? If Adams didn't get immediately hurried it was almost an automatic wide open completion with a guy streaking free. I trust Mazzone will fuck it up, doe.
Go drink some plastic bottle whiskey, duck bitch. We goin' to da rose bowl!!
(Probably not. Stanford still much better than us. But still, fuck you.....)

I actually agree. 10 team conference with 9 conference games is the way to go.
