I like Riley because he's clearly an offensive genius, but my concern is on the defensive side of the ball. Lack of great defenses has always hindered Big 12 teams from winning NCs, so getting a great defensive coordinator is a must. If it's true, I like the hire, but is there a great DC out there that's willing to follow him here? We should know something either way real soon!
I'd be ok with keeping most of our current defensive staff. I like they way they have been developing
I'm OK with Riley, he was my #2 pick, but prefer Aranda. With Riley, might be able to steer a couple 5 stars our way. 4 of his top 6 OU committs are Defensive players, plus we could use a couple RBs. https://247sports.com/college/oklahoma/Season/2022-Football/Commits/
Why would we keep a staff who have not produced in 2 years? Sure, Duronte has been much better for 3 or 4 games, but why not go for better? See the last A&M TD that put them ahead just now? What Defense? Maybe keep Corey & WRs coach, imo.
