..heh, but I understand they wanted a guy with HC expereince. I support Miles, but damn I wish we had gotten Chow. LesU!

Is/was Chow even interested in the LSU or any HC position?

There has been some talk about him and the open Syracuse position

He turned down the cuse job last week.

Chow really wanted the Stanford job and was very disappointed when he didn't get it.

Chow's got a Heisman Trophy winning QB at USC. He would have to recruit one at LSU. I'm not sure that Norm's brilliant offensive mind would help JR, Flynn perhaps.

Bringing the Jockey and leaving Secretariat in the barn will not get the Triple Crown. USC has a thoroubred at every position. There are not many players on the Oklahoma team that could replace their counterpart on the USC team.

Chow very much wants to stay on the West Coast. He had no interest in coming here, and I doubt we were interested in bringing him in.

We didn't consider him, he wasn't a sitting HC. He would have considered, if not come here...he went to NC State and was prepared to stay - but the USC job came available.

Chow has told people for years now that he can't stand having to deal with all the HC's responsibilities....that is why he has turned down so many jobs.....I have a sneaking idea that if he went to a huge program like ours...he wouldn't last long
