Watch: Must-See Interview From USC Press Conference

It’s beautiful how he transitions from talking about the leadership on the team to coaching UNLV transfer quarterback Jayden Maiava’s father Kaluka and trying to rent a car in Maui. You get a fantastic impression of his Greek wife and “…what do you call it, spring ball, whatever…”

Ryan was hired by USC in January to be assistant head coach for the defense/linebackers. He spent the last three seasons as a senior defensive assistant with the Las Vegas Raiders. Between college and the NFL, Ryan has 35 years of coaching experience.

His twin brother, Rex entertains us as an NFL analyst on ESPN. He had a 26-year coaching career of his own.

The Trojans are hoping that bringing Ryan will help improve a defense that has struggled in recent years. Let’s hope we get plenty of Rob Ryan press conferences in the near future. Remember, if vacationing in Maui and something goes wrong, tell them you know “Kaluks”.
