New Braunfels' Kliff Kingsbury is joining Lincoln Riley’s coaching staff at Southern California as a senior offensive analyst.
FILE - Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury wears a shirt in support of Buffalo Bills' Damar Hamlin as he speaks at a news conference after the team's NFL football game against the San Francisco 49ers in Santa Clara, Calif., Sunday, Jan. 8, 2023. Kingsbury is joining Lincoln Riley's coaching staff at Southern California as a senior offensive analyst. USC announced the addition Tuesday, April 11, 2023.
Riley and Kingsbury were briefly teammates at Texas Tech when Riley walked onto Mike Leach's Red Raiders roster during Kingsbury's senior season in 2002. “He thought about it for a little bit, and I think it just ended up being a great fit for both sides,” Riley said. “He’s got great familiarity with our offense. He’s got familiarity with a lot of people on our staff, so that made a lot of sense. His experience on the offensive side, to have another set of eyes, will be very helpful. ... It’s always great to have another opinion and kind of an outside perspective that isn’t tied to one position.
Kingsbury is rejoining USC at a time when the Trojans' quarterback room is loaded with talent. Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams is returning for presumably his final college season, backed up by former four-star recruit Miller Moss and incoming freshman Malachi Nelson, who is widely considered one of the nation's top quarterback prospects.
