Sort of interesting that AAR when to South Florida, eh? Anybody have info on this?

My guess is that he (and/or his wife) wanted to be closer to Atlanta (Tampa is an easy flight). But USF is a curious choice. Actually sort of a sleeping giant in that it is the only public university in the rapidly growing Tampa Bay area, but there is little tradition there. Cal has had its problems in the recent era, but it still is a much more prestigious job than USF.

I don't get it either. USF has put the mid in mid-major for most of their existence. Even if shown an "offer he can't refuse" I still would expect he'd be offered interviews at better places in the near future.
