Found that article from the other board. Find it interesting that most likely USC and Colorado having program turnover.

You had three South teams with turnover last season. I have no clue why they didn’t fire Helton last season as well. 

While Utah will most likely wait for Whitt’s retirement.  If ASU does the unthinkable and wins two road games with a first year coach by all estimates the underdog going into this season it is teeth wrenching a little though.

”gut wrenching”

”teeth clenching”

I’m not seeing the optimism that ASU winning 2 road games against average to bad teams is “unthinkable”. They’ve been improving consistently and have clearly bought in to Herm.

It’s more likely they win out than lose one at this point, especially after the loss last week and the NFL draft a week closer for JH.

Well, no PAC-12 team has won both of their road games in a back-to-back road swing. Oregon is a drastically different team at home than on the road and Arizona has been playing much better football lately (and its a rivalry game). I’d say that ASU winning both game isn’t “unthinkable”, but most certainly isn’t the most likely outcome.

As for Herbert, I thought it was reported that he is leaning on staying. Perhaps that has changed.

Isn’t the draft a week closer for Harry and Wilkins as well?

USC didn’t fire Helton last season because he won the PAC12.

Still drastically underperforming with a riches of talent. 

[TheJuggernaut]

Agree 100%. Tough to fire your coach though after he wins the conference and goes to a NY6 bowl.

[EagleMountainUte]

Yeah we would be happy with that. USC fans think they should be with Bama Clemson and etc etc. Which I agree with them. USC should be doing that with the talent 100% coaching but they still are recovering.

Helton is a filler coach until they get their ‘Big Name Hire’. USC has been chirping about John Harbaugh all season, and now it’s been announced Harbaugh will no longer coach the Ravens after this year. They will definitely throw a king’s ransom at him. Harbaugh will almost certainly be offered a coaching spot in the NFL, so it depends on what he wants to do.
