There was definitely a USC connection with Jackson having been Sultan's O-coordinator at USC during his sophomore or junior year, and that was the connection that brought Sultan to the Redskins. But from what I've heard, it was Cerrato that favored keeping pet project McCullough over then-Spurrier favorite Kenny Watson. Cerrato cut Watson, then proceeded to cut Spurrier's darling, Danny Wuerffel, and that was the final blow to Spurrier's ego that essentially cemented the hostilities between Spurrier and the front office-- and sealed McCullough's fate as benchwarmer in 2003.
