Okie State OL Coach - "Bucket Step Bob" gets job at USC

derek4tide · Feb 13, 2015

Anyone remember ole "Bucket Step?"

“We are delighted to have Bob join our staff,” said Sarkisian in a statement. “He is a great fit for what we do."

Now I know the USC preseason ranking is waaaaaaay off. I predict that USC will lead the PAC-12 in OB sacks...on their QB. lol

I hear that he knows how to play bridge real well.

To be fair, it's entirely possible that nobody bull rushes in the Pac-12

Hopefully he coaches their OL up like he did with Chris Capps.

Wasn't Bucket Step Bob the asst. coach that taught the OL line to take their first step backwards?

USC is definitely on the way back, and a sleeping giant like we were 10 yrs ago. How on earth did this guy land a job with them?

I hated the situation Chris Capps was put in at Bama..He wasn't the most talented OL & the coaching he got sure didn't make him any better..I will always have a ton of respect for Chris Capps, cause he did the best he could, in a bad time in the history of Bama Football..He represented Bama well despite the criticism he received by his own fan-base..I felt bad for him..

Look on the bright side: he's got a whole year to screw them up before we have to play them.

He is a perfect fit for what they do. What is it exactly that they do?

GrayTide · Feb 15, 2015

IIRC, "Bucket Step Bob" came with Price from Wazzou along with two of Price's sons and a RB coach who loved the coeds and the night life. The fact that they all left but "Bucket Step" was retained for 4 years was on Shula. Bridge anyone?

Most of us are as surprised as you. That said, Connelly MUST be doing several somethings right. His continued employment at better programs is clear evidence of it.

Yeah but then again didn't we wonder the same thing about CLK??? Of course he is a better OC than HC.

true, and Lane is right back at OC after failing pretty dramatically as a HC. but Connelly....my lord that guy is just a horrid Oline coach. I got suspended several times on here because of him.....

It's amazing the guy still works at the FBS level. Remember when the UCLA QB just about got killed behind his OL?

Bucket Step Bob preaches a kinder, gentler O-line philosophy.
