In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast Coach Harvey Hyde and Ryan Abraham talk about the new life that has been infused into the Trojan football program with the announcement that Oklahoma's Lincoln Riley has been hired as USC's next head coach. Riley is one of the youngest and brightest offensive minds in college football with multiple Big 12 championships, College Football Playoff appearances plus two Heisman Trophy winners and another finalist (and all three are starting NFL quarterbacks right now).The guys talk about what a huge move this was by the USC athletic department, keeping it quiet and ultimately landing the biggest fish possible (and one that LSU was after hard). They also talk about the impact Riley's hiring could have on the recruiting landscape, especially with all of his success recruiting in Southern California. All that plus as always they answer your email, text and voicemail questions!Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on Apple Podcasts!
