Anthony Lynn
- Thread starter ScPa5
- Start date
not mad they're looking at the league for candidates. didn't do horrible job in san diego. had some good years.
Strap on your seat belts. This ride is about to be one wild adventure…to say the least
A .500 coaching record. Was fired in his first HC job. He would be a complete crapshoot. I think there are more qualified coaches than this guy and Eric B.

I doubt Bohn and co is letting a "booster" do his job for him on the side. More like a rogue USC alum listening to Cowherd.
I mentioned this last week. The circle of influence with these types of decisions is small.
I know a guy who’s uncle’s dentist has a patient who is a big mover at USC. He said that Jeff Fisher is a lock.
Well, the guy said “Yepfth Pfiffthr” to guy’s uncles’s dentist but I think it’s a done deal.

Yeah I doubt there will be any legit major leaks about who's going to get the job or those in talks. This is just pressure from outsiders that want to be apart of the process. But won't be allowed to involve themselves and think they know better.
I heard from a friend of the peanut vendor at the Coli that Robinson wants a Trilogy. And he plans to have Keith Burns as his DC and Mike Riley as his OC!
In the words of Robo said by Petros…. “We’ll getcha here!!!”

We are going to be playing this name-game until Dec. SMH 
I wouldn't describe the relationships that way. However, the major donors are part of the process, and yes, it wouldn't be out of the question for one, or more, of them to gauge interest. There are things like sports agents....they tend to know one another and other large business people in SoCal. Networking.
Donor money will be helping to pay the salary. Bohn doesn't get to dictate what they do or ignore their input.
Yup. I may have to revise my original estimation of 25, as the number of names we’ll hear associated with the job.We are going to be playing this name-game until Dec. SMH
Let's just have a WeAreSC opinion poll to decide.
What could possibly go wrong?
What could possibly go wrong?
Not saying I want him, but every NFL coach has a .500 record, it is a league of parity. Only those coaches that are never moving down to CFB have records better than .500. That is not a knock on an NFL coach, so I’m not sure why people say it so often.
What a joke. If this is even remotely true or legitimate, then the “wish list“ of candidates is a pipe dream, i.e., no UM, no LF and/or any prominent coach on that list that will ”lateral.”
Maybe we are deluding ourselves. I hope I’m wrong, but I do think we make this job more desirable than it really is. I would rather have JDR then Lynn and who knows, it may actually come down to that just because no one else wants to come.

The ghost scratching its bony fingers against my window last night rasped out, amid the shrieks and moans for mercy, that it had heard from the spirit realm that a Booster had a seance in which they summoned Howard Jones, and if Keck can reanimate his long-dead corpse, he'd "die all over again for the job" (his words).

If you look deeper into the record, Its not all that bad. He went 9-7 then won 12 games. The next year Rivers was bad then had a rookie QB. 
Exactly. If people think a Tomlin, Reid, John Harbaugh, McVay, Saban, Dabo, type are leaving their successful gig, to come here, they‘re tripping off some high grade. The Anthony Lynn types are the guys you target. Had some success, as a NFL HC, and are currently an assistant or unemployed. You know, the 2001 CPC resume having types.
Not in my Top 5, but 5-year NFL HC … doesn’t hurt to talk to Lynn. No CFB experience. Carroll was about a .500 NFL coach.
No pain in checking him out. Usc has a massive rolodex of ex players to contact to get the scoop on these types. It is all about doing research. This is not a beauty contest
If the Jim Trotter tweet is accurate (that Lynn is interested in talking to USC), that bodes well that there is widespread interest among coaches in the job.
FWIW, I know he lost a ton of games by one score in 2019…..very often in the last 2 minutes.
Probably a decent coach….but very mellow….not so confident he would sway recruits with the gift of gab, like a Herm Edwards.
Conversely, why would USC even show interest unless there were rebuffs from the most desirable and obvious candidates.
1. It’s either true and USC is desperate.
2. It’s not true and Lynn’s agent leaked this because he’s desperate.
It's a "booster" that can be anyone or anything.
More like lynn wants a job and his agent talked to a USC booster. Or it's just his agent making noise.
This totally. There may be interest from the big names but it comes down to the big names wanting to be the highest paid coach in football and I don't think SC is willing to open the wallet that far.
I think the next HC will come from the triumvirate of JDR, Marvin Lewis or Lynn...
If USC is willing to pay a 10 million buyout they are willing to pay a pretty penny for a good HC.

I will never reply to my own post again, but I’m kind of stunned that I got a like from Vball.
It really means a lot to me.
From afar, over the years, as a fellow athlete and alum, I have come to love and hate you. But you are certainly more sweet than bitter, so I’m humbled. And in my defense a bit tipsy
He turned losing close games into an art form. Pass.
As Bronco fan the guy was not that bad. His main issues were having an over the hill QB and a rookie QB. His late game management did leave alot to be desired though.
Turns out he contacted Anthony about extending his auto warranty.
