I always thought the most likely candidate during that time was Charlie Waters.

I understand that Holtz was close but his dad told him not to do it.

I had heard that Chow was very interested but we would not pay his asking price. Or did the asking price stop the interview from happening?

He was the OC at USC at the time and thought he could do better.

Who the hell was interviewing these people and what was being told to them where they pulled their names out or declined to interview?
