...being embarrassed by its head coaches.

Sark and kiffin, with their obvious issues have put USC in the news for the wrong reasons.

Pete won big but the ncaa brought down USC after he left. (I don't blame Pete, but the admin seems to, and he was the program's steward at the time of the "transgressions").

USC admin must have said "no more embarrassment". And we had our guy, someone they already know and TRUST.

It was widely reported today that Greg Schiano was a finalist for the job. That tells me all I need to know about the criteria for the hire. He is known in coaching circles as a high character guy, a great community liaison, and his handling of Eric LaGrand after his tragic injury was widely lauded.

The admin wanted a high character guy as the first priority in the search.
