Most thought USC would fall back to the pack when Norm Chow left for Tennessee. It didn't happen. Kiffin and Sarkasian are very well respected despite the young age.
You win in this league by having difference-makers in the front office and/or on the coaching field. Is there any player in the league you'd take over Bill Belichick? Any TWO players in the league?
Oakland seems to have an impact coach in Ryan. They lost a negative difference-maker in Art Shell. Kiffin really doesn't have to be a genius for their staff to be better than ours.
Just who are our difference makers in the front office and coaching staff? Who is above average at their respective job? Seriously, name one.
Usually, it takes a few years for a system to fall apart. Seifert kept the 49ers going a long time after Bill Walsh left. Even Callahan kept it going in Oakland for a year after Gruden left. Herm destoyed our offense immediately.
