USC Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley joined The Herd with Colin Cowherd earlier this week, per 247Sports. During the appearance, Riley went in on murmurs that he raided the Oklahoma Sooners via the NCAA transfer portal.
:We didn’t take players from Oklahoma,” Riley said, per 247Sports. “We took players from the transfer portal. Those players and their families had to make a decision to either stay at that university, just like any other player has to make, or to enter the portal where then they can be recruited by anybody in the country.
