Couldn't you have gotten Majerus after last season? All he would need is a mil a year, and a room at the Sheraton.

This is partly true but not completely. You would think that being in a major market like Southern California would make recruiting easy. You would think that the weather, the fact that LA is a major media center, the fact that they play in a major conference....these things would make it automatic. I thought the same thing about schools like Arizona, Miami, Georgia Tech, and Texas (although Austin isn't quite a major city). But for some reason, they aren't always sought after. Mayo could have gone to UCLA and still had everything USC offered but in a higher profile program. Part of the reason he went to USC was because of Floyd. Floyd has experience in the NBA and Mayo, as well as the Sidney kid that is thinking about coming in, expressed that as a big selling point. USC has always been in Southern California and that wasn't enough to get kids like Mayo and Sidney.
