Caleb Williams’ former head coach says he plans to stay at USC.

Wednesday, Lincoln Riley was asked what he feels teams that inquire about him coaching elsewhere.

“I tell them I’m a USC Trojan,” he told reporters. “I’m at the place I want to be.”

Riley responded after reports said UCF reached out to Riley about their head coaching vacancy.

Riley was probably a longshot to land an NFL head coaching job, be it with the Bears or elsewhere. His entire coaching career has been spent at the college level between Texas Tech, East Carolina, Oklahoma and USC.
