Kliff Kingsbury took a job as the offensive coordinator for USC last month after being fired by Texas Tech. He lasted a mere weeks at Southern Cal.
Kingsbury has accepted a job to become coach of the Arizona Cardinals, per NFL Network.

The 39-year-old went only 35-40 in six seasons as head coach of the Red Raiders before being let go, only to have multiple NFL teams with head coaching vacancies come calling.
USC tried to block Kingsbury from interviewing for the openings having already accepted a job with them, but clearly that initiative has not worked.
Kingsbury’s contract is for four years with a fifth year team option.
