USC defensive coordinator Alex Grinch has been fired, coach Lincoln Riley announced Sunday.
USC defensive coordinator Alex Grinch was fired Sunday, one day after the Trojans' 52-42 loss to the Washington Huskies, coach Lincoln Riley announced.
The announcement marks the end of a disastrous two-year tenure for Grinch in Los Angeles. The 43-year-old came over from Oklahoma along with Riley in November 2021, following three seasons as Riley's defensive coordinator with the Sooners. Many fans and USC boosters called for his firing after the 2022 season, when defensive lapses and poor tackling contributed to all three of USC's losses in an 11-3 season.
