Lavin speaking with Doug Gottlieb on CBS Sports Network a few minutes ago:
If there is a position where he could he successful and it would be a good fit he would be interested.

Said getting fired after making the NCAA's was tough.

His dad is in the USF HOF. I can actually see him taking this job -- in his mind continuing his dad's legacy and being close to his mom for a few years. Great food in San Francisco, and for his wife a short flight to LA.
USF can pay a decent salary, but I'm not sure they will. Aside from cute girls and a centralized location, It is a tough sell -- there is no real campus, and mid-major-level kids in Northern California have a lot of other options.
TV will always be there for him, so I can see Lavin really thinking hard about it.
He will definitely dazzle in the interview when they compare him to Rex Walters, who is a huuuuugggggeeee asshole. Should have fired him years ago.

Aside from the obvious criticisms always felt that the disconnect with our fans was in part due to the fact that Lavin is a west coast type of guy. USF right locale for him.but the lights arent bright enough nor will the $$ be in the announcer range

Except for the fact that he had a disconnect with the UCLA fans as well. He ought try his hand at middle-America next. Maybe Iowa, ya know the place were Prof Harold Hill plied his trade .

UCLA fans, like ours, are living in the past. Only Final Fours and championship banners count there. We'd have gladly accepted his UCLA success here, which would have been unprecedented for us.

How much is he making as an announcer? I know it's decent amount, but I didn't think it was so huge that he'd be nutty to walk away from it.
He's definitely a West Coast type of guy. Unfortunately, SF is not the place it was when he last lived there. He may not like the vibe anymore.
Jordan out at Rutgers. Well, that didn't last long did it?
not surprised. hard to compete in the big 10.

Forget about the Big 10 -- his teams couldn't compete in most mid-major programs. Thought he'd get a fourth year, but the program is in shambles, recruiting has been awful, and the natives were getting very restless.

New AD was recently hired and is cleaning house - football and men's basketball
Both programs desperately needed a change in leadership
