It has been one year since Lincoln Riley was hired as the head coach for the USC Trojans.
A year ago, Oklahoma lost to Oklahoma State in the Bedlam game, and rumors swirled in the days preceding that game about Riley potentially going to LSU. However, Sunday morning came, and a bombshell dropped that Riley was the new head coach at USC in a whirlwind series of events across college football.
It seemed unreal, yet here we are. One year later, the Trojans have a Heisman Trophy finalist at quarterback, a Pac-12 title game appearance, and a shot at the College Football Playoff.
It's only been one year. Let's recall what happened on November 28, 2021, and in the 24 hours after that explosive event which changed everything for USC:
