If I'm not mistaken didn't he interview with some team the year prior to signing with us? Or am I thinking of someone else?

He had and he also interviewed for the HC job that Gase won with the Jets. It's how he first met Darnold and he had an interview/meeting with Darnold during the process.

He interviewed with the Jets before Gase got the job - he references it when talking about Darnold.

He was due to interview with the Giants the year we hired him, but Tepper didn't let him leave without a contract (altho Rhule called the Giants after that and they wouldn't match the offer Tepper made).

He interviewed with the Jets once.

He's taken others and was scheduled more after ours but he took the job. He's also turned down some, like the Bears for instance. Point is that he clearly wasn't against coaching in the NFL.

Bieniemy might hit some road blocks when his past comes up with the recruiting rape scandal in the early 2000s at Colorado.

Rhule could be a possibility but he would have to really not like the NFL plus USC would need to give him a Jimbo Fisher style contract. Hard to see that happening.

Could see Joe Brady being a top candidate though.

this reeks of bullshit

From the article itself...

I get Rece Davis' thinking and maybe Mike Bohn does approach Matt Rhule in that manner but it won't happen. There's no way Matt Rhule leaves the Panthers for USC. Rhule is building something here in Carolina with the youngest team in the league and a ton of potential surrounding it.

Would he have left Baylor for Carolina for the same amount of money?

Why did he spend the majority of his career at the NCAA level never seeking NFL employment?

He spent 1 year in NY and went back to the NCAA. Marty and Tepper went after him not the other way around.

Uhhh he interviewed for the Jets HC vacancy in 2019.  He very obviously wants to be an NFL coach

A college head coach is higher on the profile and earnings than a NFL assistant coach.

I highly doubt Rhule will try for the USC HC job.  The man has been working for an NFL HC job his entire career.  USC is not exactly the most desirable job in college football anymore.  Anyone who gets that job will have their work cut out for them.  USC is no longer the powerhouse it once was.  I mean hell, USC can't even keep top QB prospects in the state anymore.  I.E. Bryce Young, Dj Ugalelei. How are you going to convince prospects like them, that the PAC 12 is where you need to be.  PAC 12 is weak, and an alliance with ACC is only to keep pace with the SEC. So good luck to the next HC at USC.  You're going to need it.
