Is USC smart enough to do what the NFL wouldn't and hire Eric Bieniemy? | Brother From Another

If USC wants to interview Bieniemy, he should absolutely take the interview. If USC offers him the head coaching job, he should take the job. USC head football coach is better than at least 25, maybe 28 NFL head coaching jobs. Don't get seduced by the letters NFL. Yes it's the pros. As a whole, the NFL is king. That being said, USC head football coach is a top 5 job in football, pro or college. USC is a massive job. It's a great job. It's not anything close to being a step down from the NFL.

I've also been to Middle of Nowhere PA. Exactly how they described it

[douglasanderson]

A black coach, especially one named Eric Bienemy can't do any worst than what these other coaches have produced for USC over recent years.

[erLA]

USC also has not had a black QB since Rodney Pete...

[sdresden]

Folt veto'd one of the greatest college coaches of all time in Meyer because she had questions about his "integrity", .. but she would sign off on Eric Bienemy ???

[trekranger]

What are you talking about Mike. USC hasn't said anything. It's the the sports pundits who are throwing names out there

[jerryneil]

I like the idea of James Franklin out of Penn State and all due respect to Meyer there has been problems with him going back to Florida and I don't want to see that at USC since we came off major sanctions a few years ago

[jayvto]

Everyone needs to calm down and take a chill pill !! We don't need to make a decision now, we have several months before we make a decision!! We can go back after the season and ask a questions to these so called candidate coach's.

I’m so tired of this propaganda at this point. Who TF actually believes that the entire nfl didn’t hire a guy in 2021 because he is black. Because that’s what these shows suggest. The reality is, Eric Bienemy didn’t get hired because of Matt fucking Nagy. Nagy is proof that the chiefs offensive genius is from andy Reid and Patrick mahomes, and that Reid just uses his OC’s to carry the clipboard. God 2021 is fucking annoying sometimes

[toddrichards]

If Dallas was smart they would fire Mike McCarthy and hire EB today.

[trekranger]

Eric bienemy's biggest problem is that he doesn't have head coach experience and USC needs a coach a decision before early signing day

[GeronFletcher]

I’d rather Eric get an NFL job. But USC is one hire away from honestly going past Alabama especially with this endorsement money opportunity in LA. Alabama won’t be able to compete with that

[rashadellison]

I just want to add that AP, yes that one, said he took one of his visits to Cali to visit EB loved the weather, so much he had mind to play his college in CA, n AP should’ve won the Heisman as a true freshman

[ifheavenwashuman]

Hopefully not. He deserves a league job, but money talks.

[trekranger]

USC's interim coach is African American, besides most of USC's athletic directors were African American and they decided who to hire as coach.

[anthonyhilton]

Please don't take the job. You deserve to be a coach in the league. Don't give them a inch to question your ability to coach in the N.F.l .

[jerryarrieta]

Eric HC and hires deon sanders as new OC.. they would recruit like a juggernaut

[k-hustlethesportspreacher]

The Owners have made their decisions not to hire Bieniemy because he would've been had a NFL job. If the Chiefs make another run then he will miss out another job because he's not quote on quote available. 😒

[ajmallory]

I actually was saying watch them hire Bill O Brien because of his ties with Alabama and New England.as much as I would like to see EB get it the one thing you hear from players around the league and other coaches in the NFL is EB is a guy that will get in your grill and don't take any crap type of coach..USC wants someone they can control I don't think EB would want that he needs to go somewhere he can have freedom and time to change it around USC firing coaches after 2 years with good records.

[milo]

Bieniemy hasn't been hired because he doesn't interview well, he's got personal history issues and nobody knows what exactly he does for the Chiefs. Calling his hire "the right thing" or "overdue" is ignoring a ton of factors.

I love Eric, all time great RB coach and awesome dude, helped my Chiefs win a ton of games, but you can't just champion a guy because of his skin color and name recognition.

Y'all love turning this into a political issue to cry about, but I doubt you've ever heard him fumble his way through a press conference or can explain what his role on the Chiefs is.
