Why would any of these big name young coaches that have gone deep into the dance want to coach a team that was one and done and won't have its best player back? The balls on UCLA fan and Dan Guerrero are huge.
But they are not as huge as the balls on USC fan and Pat Haden. Because despite having a perennially crap team with "Miner" historical success and at best a factory for role players in the NBA (Scalabrine, Taj Gibson, Nick Young, Demar Derozan, OJ Mayo), USC fan seriously thought that Shaka Smart was not only on the table, but ours to lose. Yes, count me among that group. Shaking my head that anyone thinks the USC job is anything more than a place for an OK coach to regroup for a couple years.
