the SEC is the queen of saying bowl games don't matter

no motivation

Probably explains our last hire and the one that's about to happen.  AD wasn't up for it.

While the amount that USC offered in the reported deal has not been disclosed, 247Sports' Carl Reed reported earlier Sunday that LSU had offered Riley $12 million and that Oklahoma was trying to match that number. It appears that USC offered an amount north of that mark that Oklahoma was unable to reach.

Riley, 38, is 55-10 overall and 37-7 against Big 12 play since taking over as OU's head coach in 2017.

BTW quiche is just a fancy french name for an omelette in a pie crust. Not all that scary :57:

Dessert belongs in a pie crust. Not omelettes nor chicken pots, whatever those are.

USC does not have more money than LSU. Not even close. They don't get the same kind of money from their PAC TV deals than LSU gets from the SEC TV deals, they don't sell anywhere near the merchandise or tickets as LSU, and they don't get anywhere near the same kind of money from boosters donating money that LSU does.

USC football generates a fraction in revenue/donations of what LSU football does.
Boosters. USC has them, and they have more money than anyone else, including ND.

I had not though LA would have wealthy folks that interested in USC football, but it only takes a handful.

I had thought USC would be the best spot for most coaches because the money would be good and the expectations would be manageable, at least initially.  Mullen is gone of course after three NY6 bowls in three years and one collapse season, and some comments.  At USC that would be epic.  I also like their cheerleaders' outfits.

I presume he can up their recruiting and compete in the Pac.

UGA snagged a tight end out of Napa who is epic as a freshman, can't let that continue.  Their backup QB is from USC also.

USC has a very strong alumni base, and many of them are loaded.

You kinda have to be loaded to go to USC in the first place, to be honest.

There is loaded, as in comfortable, and loaded, as in truly wealthy of course.  The latter can write enormous checks the former could only wish for.

I'm sure they have plenty who earn half a million a year, but that is a lot different from someone with half a billion in assets.  They both can afford tuition.

I know a guy who played on the 1945 Rose Bowl team that beat Tennessee.

He was a lawyer, and a very wealthy one at that. He donates $2.5 Million per year to football (as of 4 years ago - last time I saw him). He has many friends who do the same. Lives in a monster in Beverly Hills, with mansions on Laguna Beach and Hawaii. 

Filthy rich.

I'm hoping to be in the will. :)

I imagine LSU has some large donors as well, as does Oklahoma State.  Some programs like say Duke have wealthy alumni but not many interested in CFB, apparently.

I'd guess programs like LSU and USC and Florida can pay a coach just about any figure, and pay other coaches not to coach, comfortably.  Maybe one is wealthier than another, but they call can pay, and will.

I could match that but it means selling the extensive collection of Beer Lights in my rec room and pawning that bottle of Pappy,so screw it

Lincoln Riley made a calculated move turning his back on Oklahoma for USC, but it may pay off massively - CBSSports.com

LSU has to be kicking itself. AD Scott Woodward was apparently throwing around $100 million deals for the right coach to replace Ed Orgeron. Riley's name had bubbled up in the speculation. Now, 42 days after Coach O was fired, LSU is the last of three top-tier programs without a coach.

The money was going to be the money no matter where Riley ended up. Mel Tucker recently made sure that every coach of substance was going to get a raise after his $95 million deal with Michigan State. Riley chose his path picking a downtrodden 4-7 program that just fired its coach over a program in LSU that had won a national championship two years ago.

USC is called the University of Spoiled Children 'round here for a reason...
