Quarterbacks at USC. Tuiaki is a proven commodity, the position may be new but this guy knows how to coach and will a HOT commodity shortly. Ty is by far the bigger risk.

I love the Sitake model, that is what a good coach does, identify talent, give them an opportunity and then have them move on and go through the process again.

Agree with one quibble. The jury is still out on whether Sitake brought in

True, I guess Tuiaki impressed me and I am confident Detmer can get it done.

I agree with these thoughts but we have so little to offer up and coming

Great assistant. I don't feel we replaced him with great talent.

What evidence do you have that Lewis may not be "fitting in"?

Just an observation. He is noticeably less involved than other assistants.
