“I want to be the head coach at USC,” Orgeron told ESPNU’s College Football Daily. “I love being a head coach. I think that’s it’s something that I’m able to do, and do well. And I want to be the head coach at USC when I get the chance.”

“I think I can perform on a very high basis to do what the Trojan family wants me to do,” he continued.

After the team’s dramatic 20-17 win over then fourth ranked Stanford, the team improved to 5-1 under their interim head coach, especially after a rocky 3-2 start.

Orgeron has been with USC since 2010.
