Other than being in LA, USC is the easier job and also should be able to easily recruit talent similar to SEC talent. Who want's to butt head in SECW and Saban every year, face GA is Championship game if you get there, and be fired in 3 years if you don't do both of those things.

Hell, LSU just fired Ogre 2 years removed from a Natty with one of those being a Covid year.
