SC first hired Helton as the Head Coach in 2015 after the leave of absence by Steve Sarkisian. Helton was first hired in 2010 by Lane Kiffin as a QB coach and moved up the ladder taking on Passing Game Coordinator duties and then Offensive Coordinator duties. He was the interim HC twice prior to his hiring as the Head Coach.

Helton ends his tenure as the USC head coach with a 46-24 record and 2-3 in bowl games. He also won the Pac-12 Championship & Rose Bowl in 2017, with 3 Pac-12 South Division titles in 2015, 2017, and 2020.
