Hewitt made it official again - Georgia Tech is where he is going to stay. As we posted earlier in the week, some media outlets were speculating that Hewitt would make a good candidate for the newly opened USC coaching job, since he was an assistant there under George Raveling.

"I have no interest at all," Hewitt said. "Not even close. I haven't been contacted and I don't expect to be contacted. I hate to even make any sort of statement because that kind of intimates that they are interested in me. I don't want to put USC out there like that."
"I'm not interested in going to USC, or anywhere," Hewitt said. "I'm very happy where I am."
