The USC Trojans suffered a disappointing opening loss to Oregon, marking the team's first game of the season. The incident involving Desman Stephens celebrating a dirty hit on Oregon quarterback Dante Moore has sparked discussions surrounding the culture within the program under head coach Lincoln Riley. Colin Cowherd and Paul Finebaum have both criticized the culture and called for Riley's dismissal.
Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports suggested that if USC were to fire Riley, they might pursue former Fresno State head coach Kalen DeBoer. Dellenger pointed out that Cohen, the current athletic director at USC, has a history of successfully hiring coaches, having previously recruited Jimmy Lake and Kalen DeBoer during her tenure at Washington.
However, DeBoer might not be eager to leave Alabama for a struggling USC program. USC will face Washington on Saturday at 7:30 pm ET.
