Lol. Over/Under on his firing is 2 years.

They ran out of options after Dixon rejected them twice and ran off Theus.

USC fans are furious. My guess is he's a stop gap until the NCAA problems are over and then they make another run at Dixon.

He's a clean coach which they need, but not the type of personality that can recruit good players to a dead program.

Theus claims he pulled his name out of consideration, nobody believes him. Dixon and Kruger turned them down, Boylen supposedly wasn't all that interested.

Mixed bag he won't get them on probation again, but unless he mellowed a lot he won't be a long term guy.

Hilarious

I lol'ed.

Floyd turned us down to "build a powerhouse program", but who becomes the coach of that same program just 3 months later? Our former interim coach.
