A trip to the Pac-12 championship game vs. Utah is the latest sign the Trojans are meeting the high expectations the coach set after being hired one year ago Monday.
LOS ANGELES — Monday marks one year since USC shook up the college football landscape and hired Lincoln Riley away from Oklahoma. And several times since then, from his introductory press conference to media day in July, the head coach was asked about his expectations for the program in Year 1.
They’ve done so at Riley’s example. He attacked the job at hand from the moment he arrived, evaluating practices before USC’s 2021 season finale at Cal while simultaneously hosting high-profile recruits during those practices. Riley arrived at USC with the experience of three trips to the College Football Playoff as a head coach. The Trojan players knew this, which helped seniors like Andrew Vorhees, Brett Neilon and Nick Figueroa decide to come back for their extra year of NCAA eligibility after having a season affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
