It's kind of a funny (sick?) irony considering how things turned out. Floyd was almost the man in Tucson, then reneges and comes back to USC only to resign a few months later. Makes me wonder what would have transpired had Floyd actually the Arizona job in the first place.
Thankfully for Wildcat fans, they'll never find out. I would think that Floyd saw the handwriting on the wall as it pertains to the NCAA nailing both him and his program, so that was the impetus for this move. Of course, I could be wrong, as I don't know the full details of the investigation. But I can't recall the last time a coach resigned when they were "innocent" of such charges.
