McBride said he has neither talked to USC nor Times writer David Wharton. "I haven't talked to anybody. If they called me, I'd be interested in talking to them," McBride said. McBride's name has surfaced regarding USC, Arizona and San Jose State jobs, all places where he has some personal ties, but he says he doubts many places want to hire a coach whose team has just gone 4-7.
