You said yourself they were looking for panache and not necessarily the best available coach. This is why Majerus never got an offer from a top 5 program--he was too heavy. Don't kill the messenger, it's true. At places like USC, UCLA, Kentucky (basketball), North Carolina, they need the Steve Lavin look and dash. Especially at the Southern California Pac 10 schools.
