I made this point in a post last week, but I'll reiterate it here...
You interview when you are interested in leaving. Hamilton has made it clear, and Shaw is certainly aware that he wants to climb the coaching ladder, so he's interviewing. Mason is a different story. He's not interviewing because he is not ready to move on from Stanford. Here's a quote from a story Kevin Gemmell did on Mason in November:
"I'm so in love with what is happening here with our players," he said. "I truly believe I am where I'm supposed to be."
Contrast this with the article on Hamilton in the WashPo, where he made clear he wants to be back closer to D.C.
