I thought that he would be getting a head coaching gig at an AQ school, seems like he would be settling with SM....thoughts?

Have you even noticed the trend of where BCS programs are hiring from?
And there is a Coaching Changes board.

Southern Miss is a good job.
I don't see him getting it over Ellis Johnson though if Johnson is serious about it...

You do realize this will be his first head coaching job at the college level? Southern Miss is a competitive program and a great place to use as a stepping stone to a BCS conference job.

I think Southern Miss is a pretty decent first job

Too young.
Would be entirely in over his head at an A&M type school. Its his first major HC stop.
If he fails at A&M like Shula at Bama he is back to a coordinator/position coach type role.

Why wouldn't he want to coach the best CFB program in the state of Mississippi?

Kirby will not get the USM job. They'll hire Anderson (b/c of familiarity) or Ellis Johnson. Kirby would have to have an incredible interview to get that job.
The reason a lot of the BCS schools aren't offering is partly b/c he is 35 years old w/ no HC experience at any level. The reason he is interviewing at USM is b/c he realizes he could go there, do well, and have a BCS HC job by 38-39 years old.

My thought is that if you are an assistant and you can get a head coaching job at a school that goes bowling every year, you fricking pounce on it. Any more questions?

As mentioned with Gus' hiring, the ADs are thinking twice about hiring a coach with no HC experience. The Smart ones saw this and are taking what they can get.

Winning at USM is a better career move than losing at Ole Miss or the like.
