Wow. Maybe Pete left a bad taste in their mouth even with all the trophies.
From another thread on Helton I posted what I thought the reason for not wanting to change coaches, aside from the baggage that Urb would bring with him, if you just look at it from USC's angle: 8-4 top 25 team, youth all over the 2 deep and a twenty million dollar buyout, I think he stays.
Now the above comment was from November before signing day, I don't remember where their class came in but I don't think it was very good. If USC's qb can stay healthy next year and they have a good season, their offensive cooridnator is good, Clay might even buy himself another year. Of course this is purely a guess because I have no inside info.
Meyer is obviously a HOF coach but he's now retired from two Blue Blood programs and almost called it quits a year earlier than he did at Florida, if memory serves me correctly. He hasn't gotten any younger since then. I'm sure many administrators view him as almost guaranteed near term success but not a long term solution.
There's no conspiracy. The guy is terrible. If anything, there's a conspiracy at the university to KEEP the loser because they'll do anything to avoid a scandal right now.
Meeeee tooooooo.
It's to avoid any more scandals. The university is under a lot of scrutiny because of multiple scandals outside of the football team (like the recent admissions debacle, plus there was a gynecologist on campus who was accused of sexual assault by many people). The president of the university doesn't want to risk more scandal with Urban. It sounds like they had conversations with Bob Stoops but couldn't convince him. With the steep buyout and the fact that Clay runs a squeaky clean program, they just decided to stick with the loser. All USC fans are currently miserable.
Not all fans. I am a member of the Tournament of Roses and there are some connected people that are Happy that that Helton was retained. Probably because he is a good man that runs a clean program and not willing to cross that line, but we'll see if that support lasts.

I hope USC goes 9-3 and wins the Pac 12 South, they won't be able to fire him after that.
If you want to talk about great scenarios for keeping Helton at USC to keep them from getting back to elite status, how about they finish 8-4 and lose a bowl game, but they upset Notre Dame, beat UCLA, and play in the Pac-12 championship game? Beating Notre Dame would buy a great deal of empathy, especially if it's deemed to be a huge upset of a highly ranked N.D. team. Since I can't stand either team, this is my way of hitting 2 birds with 1 stone.
That is even more better than my idea.
