That's seems like a horrible hire. He's way too emotional on the sidelines, as evident by the outburst in the Bama/Auburn game. It sounds like Auburn was not going to have him back because of that outburst. Sounds like RR from Zona turned them down as well. Why not make a call to Chizik from UNC or Brohm from WKy or how about Ruffin McNeil who was just let go by ECU?
I think South Carolina made a great choice with Will Muschamp. He's only 44 years old and has four years of experience of knowing what not to do as a head coach. Muschamp won't make the same mistakes he made at Florida by hiring another Charlie Weise as his offensive coordinator. That one hire set Florida back where the offense still hasn't recovered. South Carolina has a coach who knows the SEC and especially the SEC East...plus he's a damn good recruiter.
Five year contract worth $16 million. Three million the first year plus $100,000 raise each year after. He also gets a $2 million life insurance policy, two cars, membership in a country club and a suite at the stadium.
Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez was reportedly offered the job but turned it down. Others interviewed: Shawn Elliott (Interim coach), Lincoln Riley (Oklahoma OC), Willie Taggart (South Florida HC), Sonny Dykes (Cal HC) and Greg Schiano (former Rutgers HC).

You're correct. He was only interviewed, never offered.
