USC Morning Buzz: Georgia Defensive Coach Chris Wilson Wavering On Coming West?

WILSONGeorgia defensive line coach Chris Wilson is having second thoughts about coming to USC, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Does anyone want this job? Let’s quickly review the defensive line coaches for USC the past four months: Ed Orgeron, Pete Jenkins, Ross Cumming, Bo Davis, Chris Wilson?

The worst part of this is if Wilson stays at Georgia, the Ed Orgeron speculation will start again.

  1. Scott, I wouldn’t read too much into it. But…it is peculiar.

    USC has an All-America coming back, an excellent transfer, a JC star, and several players very much sought after while in high school. The HC is in his first year, and will be around for awhile.

    It was 75-80 degrees and sunny today–January 16. There is no shortage of pretty girls, things to do, or places to eat.

    In short, a DL coach could do a lot worse.

    Maybe Wilcox is a drag to work with. I don’t know.

      • I didn’t attend USC, so I’m speaking from a dispassionate POV.

        Location: I have known quite few alumni over the years, and never heard that complaint. Not sure why not , but never heard it. The fact is that downtown L.A. has become much more exciting than it used, the night scene is definitely in Hollywood, the Metro stops at USC, etc. You may be right, but I’d have to hear a lot more.

        Staff: I think LK had some deterring qualities, but Sark seems quite congenial, and it’s at least somewhat telling that so many of his Wash. staff were willing to move.

        Administration: Haden has fallen in my eyes, but not because I think he’s a bad guy. I think he’s a nice Catholic boy. He does, in fact, lack experience at this job function, and that has led to some issues. He does not, however, micromanage his coaches. I don’t see the admin. as much of an issue.

  2. Maybe I should take over for Wolf:
    Wilson is coming to SC.
    I want to thank Georgia, Mark Richt, the players and his awesome staff for the privilege of being a part of UGA! Be blessed. #GoDawgs

    • He had to leave with Florida State’s Jeremy Pruitt taking over as DC. Look what we are getting: In 2013 Georgia ranked only eighth in the Southeastern Conference in total defense and 78th in the nation in scoring defense. Georgia gave up 29 points per game to rank 78th in the nation, gave up 323 yards rushing in their loss to Auburn, and the Bulldogs finished 8-5 including a loss to Nebraska in the Gator Bowl. The upside is he can recruit the Southeast for us.

      • Yes as an overall defense, but their run def went from 4.1 YPC to 3.7 YPC under Wilson, had like 20 more tackles behind lime of scrimmage and increased sacks. Plus this guy can recruit. Good get, if he stays.

        • BabyBoy22 is a tough sell. He’s still intently focused on USC’s bowl loss to GT. The simpleton wah, wah just can’t get over it and also doesn’t understand the difference between a DC and a DL coach. The sky’s always falling with this welfare recipient creep. He’s gonna try to sneak into the Heritage Hall re-opening ceremony without paying.

      • Georgia’s D-line was the only bright spot on the defense. HE’S THE D-LINE COACH, NOT COORDINATOR.

  3. Not everyone is willing to commute back and forth like Orgeron, so they would have to move here (not sure where Wilson is from originally). Talk about culture shock. Plus, you’re replacing a legend (at least in the player’s minds) at a sanction riddled roster. Tough job.

      • Yes, you are laughable. Luckily, you provide me loads of entertainment. Hey, why are all of your SNs getting banned?

    • Definitely a legend the only guy that I know that can get 5* recruits by saying cooooookie.. .cooooookieeeeee.. .

      • You do realize how well-respected Orgeron is in the recruiting world and by his players? Else why did Mora vote him as coach of the year?

        Are you really this stupid?

        • 1. I guess you have to exclude SC AD, oh chucks… .
          2. It doesn’t matter who voted for him Jabronie, did he win when he had too?. .
          3. Hey you don’t ask I won’t ask, your questions though… .

          Warning: Repeated crotch kicks can result in brain failure!

          • Your response just proved you really are that stupid, hence why you are a UCLA fan. Lulz.

          • You’re attempting a reasonable dialogue with someone who prefers insults, but lacks the wit to excel at it. The next thing you know, you’re insulting him back, which means he sort of won. I fall into it, too; it’s thankless and pointless.

  4. Thank you USC, for always providing the laughter in Los Angeles. When I think about usc and their fans, I picture clowns.

      • 2-time defending L.A. city champions, whooping your arses 35-14;with 10 true freshmen in our starting line-up. You should be embarrassed to even reply, U Stuoid Clown.

        • Two times. Wow, that a dynasty you got there. Best the little school has ever done. I can understand your excitement, we really don’t care much what happens with your little bunch over there.

          • tough beating cheaters, now that your cheating wings have been clipped, and the playing field is level, UCLA owns this town. Better location, better academics, better coaches, it’s a no brainer, BRUINS ALL DAY!!!

          • When is last time you guys won a BCS game, PAC 12 title, anything besides beating a team that was hit with worse a sanctions in 30 years? Really setting the bar high over in Bruinville.

          • pretty sure kicking “the ever living crap” out of someone would be a score of 50-0.

          • LOL, so not only are you living in the past, but you’re changing it too? Did the 90’s not happen anymore? 8 in a row? LOL. SC —> Yesterday U!

          • 8 in a row, when? In the past? Who is living where dummy. Is your school so totally f’d up that you have to come here and share your hate? How sad for you little guys.

        • Ps U Clowns Lose Again, stupid is spelled “stupid.” Dang, you are Stuoid too. Clown with a Numb Annnnnnnnnnnnnnus

  5. FYi he tweeted this AM thanks for everything Georgia and heading West. Cut and paste Scotty behind on the story as usual. Shouldn’t this column be called USC THE SKY IS FALLING

  6. AAAAAAAAAhhhh just like I posted 12hrs. earlier thanks Wolfman!

    Wolfman how about some BREAKING NEWS:
    Scene 1: OGRE – FAIL x2
    Scene 2: Tosh – FAIL Sanctions of course!
    Scene 3: Salave’a (WSU D-line coach) – FAIL No thanks!
    Scene 4: B.Davis (Texas D-line coach) – FAIL Uuh nope!
    Scene 5: Wilson (UGA) – Soon to FAIL deal far from done..

    Other notables:
    Pete Jenkins(NOT Carroll, HA)
    Ross Cumming(NOT comming, HA)

    Oh man Christmas all over again, it’s a crotch kick epidemic… .AAAUUUUuuuuu!!

    • Is that his reputation, Fred? I hope you’re wrong. Guys who really know a lot probably should work in the NFL, where they can test themselves adequately and work with equals.

      Developing younger and lesser talents who aren’t getting paid and are pulled in several directions is a different challenge.

  7. I would like to nominate Joseph B. Lowe for DL Coach. He meets all the criteria. Loves SC more than even Coach O. Won’t leave Haden’s office crying. In fact, Haden might leave crying. He has the right amount of nasty to teach the kids. He already lives in Manhattan Beach and won’t need to relocate. He’s used to getting down and dirty in the trenches. He has plenty of time on his hands to get the job done. The only question mark is, can he recruit?

  8. Dear Wolf,
    you should really investigate before reporting.. You look like an idiot.. COPY AND PASTING REPORTING just isnt professional.
    Thank you
