So uh… I was curious if the OU bar here in Denver had changed the name of their “Lincoln Riley Rolls” to a Stoops thing yet. And oh my god it’s better than I imagined. (They are incredible by the way) @StoneysDenver

Yeah totally @LincolnRiley, USC jumped on the phone with someone at 6AM local time on a Sunday as a first contact and dropped $100 million. At this point I’m just believing the dude is a pathological liar.
SVP then pressed Lincoln Riley on the idea that USC conversations didn't begin until Sunday morning. "You gotta call somebody early in the morning. By the time I'm awake, it's like the train was down the tracks. So this was like a first thing in the morning conversation...?"

Through all my time working on campus events and orientation programming, Stroud was always a wildly disingenuous individual who’s motivation was to be liked and only actually treated people with respect if they could affect his professional career.
Now that he’s gone, can I say that Clarke Stroud is a fake?

In reality, I’m probably wrong and bitter so best of luck. We’ve never seen Lincoln build a program so we have no idea if he’s even capable of this.

Maybe in 3 years with a full cycle you can compete for conference titles. But if that happens the NFL will back up the money truck right about the time college football goes into super conference mode and he bolts. More likely I think is that he’s fired halfway through 2025.

You aren’t abandoning the school, you’re abandoning a locker room full of 19 year olds that you lied to last year. Last and maybe the most perplexing, this isn’t a step up or an NFL move, it’s a massive step back to a program in full rebuild mode.

Additionally, thinking about head coaching positions, especially ones in the public eye, as “leaving for another job” is disingenuous. The primary goal is to build relationships, have kids trust you and your program.

Considering your criticism just this year of mid-season coaching changes, going to the program that has done it the most often is borderline insane.
