I bet they call Sark, Sumlin, and Petersen.

Between the Texas and USC opening, Saban stands to land a new deal no matter what. I can see Saban taking a job at either school and saying he wanted to adapt a HUNHO and did not have the personnell in place at Bama to do so and did not want to change the tone from what the Bama fans were accustomed to, like a Neb or Mich. So he took the job, but it had nothing to do with the record deal he just got offered that Bama wouldn't match.

USC is a friggin disaster right now. IMO no SEC coach would take this job right now other than Butch Jones and he won't get offered it anyways...

USC needs a "homerun" hire...Possible an NFL coach...

IMO Pertrino would possibly be a good fit.. I could also see Gruden getting offered the job

USC really isn't that great of a job. The facilities, fan support, etc is not great. There is a hot bed for recruits but they no longer have a lock on any of them.

@BrockESPN: I know two things definitively:

1. Kevin Sumlin can coach
2. Kevin Sumlin is more than enamored with Southern California

I think SC will go after an NFL guy and hope they catch lightning in a bottle again like they did with Pete Carrol.......jmho

according to InsideUSC, a former SEC coach is likely taking over for the remainder of the season

InsideUSC ?@InsideUSC 42m
Ed Orgeron leading candidate to be interim coach. Sources do not think Clancy Pendergast has personality for job #USC

This is the part I like...

InsideUSC ?@InsideUSC 1h
To recap, Lane Kiffin pulled of team bus outside LAX private terminal and fired. Team went back to #USC without him

Saban!!!

In all seriousness, I think Jack Del Rio might take it now that he isn't an NFL head coach. Loved JDR in his early years in Jax, and I think he'd make a great coach for USC.

On Sirius/XM they were saying James Franklin is the name mentioned the most so far.

I could see Sumlin, Sarkisian, or Petrino fitting well.

They'll offer Sumlin the job if they think they can get him. I am exceedingly confident that they can't get him.

Be crazy to. USC doesn't get it's full number of scholarships until 2015, and they're obviously not good now. Even with Saban I can't see them being respectable until 2016 at the earliest (by which time the new coach will have been fired).
