Letters to Sports: Times are tough for Lincoln Riley and his Trojans
"It's very obvious to this USC diehard fan, Lincoln Riley is not delivering on his commitment to restore Trojans football to national prominence as head coach. Stop promising better results, hiring new assistant coaches, and commenting on the difficulty of the schedule. Coach Riley, Do Your Job! After USC lost to unranked Texas Christian in the Alamo Bowl to finish a 9-4 season, coach Lincoln Riley said, "The arrow is pointing straight up." He apparently didn't receive a compass for Christmas."
"If USC plays again in the Alamo Bowl, the Trojans should bring their own officials. 'Nuf said. After losing to TCU in overtime, the Trojans will always "Remember the Alamo (Bowl)." With that, the Men of Troy seem to break my heart every football season. Not playing Notre Dame anymore is sacrilegious. Last but not least, Lincoln Riley is an overrated head football coach. Fight On!"
Lincoln Riley has not delivered on the commitment to restore USC football to national prominence. Promises of better results, hiring new assistant coaches, and comments about schedule difficulty are criticized. USC finished 9-4 after an overtime Alamo Bowl loss to unranked Texas Christian. Riley's claim that "The arrow is pointing straight up" is mocked as misguided. USC should bring its own officials if it returns to the Alamo Bowl. The loss is framed as another season of heartbreak for the Men of Troy. Ending the Notre Dame rivalry is described as sacrilegious. Lincoln Riley is labeled an overrated coach, followed by 'Fight On.'
