That didn’t take long….

After reports surfaced a few days ago about boosters from USC reaching out to Detroit Lions Offensive Coordinator Anthony Lynn about their open head coaching position, Lynn immediately shot down those rumors claiming that no one from the university has even reached out to him:

“You know, my sister graduated from USC. I have half my family in California. A lot of the guys that I played with went to USC. So of course those guys have talked to me, and that’s flattering. But to be honest with you, I’m surprised something like this even went public, you know? I haven’t spoken with USC at all.”

Lynn is in his first season with the Lions organization after being fired by the Los Angeles Chargers following the 2020 season. Do you believe Lynn when he says that no one from USC has contacted him about the open head coaching position?
