His 2014 class per 247 is 53rd. Better than ours but not great.

His 2015 class per 247 isn't in the top 40. Still early but we are 13th.

Why shouldn't he be fired after two shitty years?

ETA: He did get a couple of good players in his 2013 class so I will give you that.
Their roster was more talented? That is laughable. Sword was a 3 star, Thomas was a 3 star, and Ware was a 4 star. Those three alone had more talent then USC's roster combined. Martin took over a shittier program in shittier shape then Ray did.

Sure, Martin had more bodies but not more talent. USC is a shifty program. Dave Odem couldn't win there and Eddie Fogler had one great year there. USC is the worst job in the SEC in basketball historically and if Martin can get them to the NIT it would be a miracle. If he gets the talent he keeps getting to go there, they will make the NCAA tourney which is a huge Herculean effort IMO.
