Coaching search narrows

One of the best signs a coaching search is nearing its end is when the list of known candidates begins shrinking faster than it grows. So today’s news that Will Muschamp is no longer a candidate suggests that Georgia Tech is getting close to hiring a coach. At least, I hope so.
From all reports, Muschamp was a strong candidate. He joins Randy Edsall on the list of former candidates.
That seems to leave Paul Johnson, Rick Neuheisel and Chris Hatcher as possibilities. There are strong arguments for all three, and there are arguments against all three, too.
Today’s news that Johnson was in Dallas speaking with SMU suggests other media reports he will be Tech’s coach were premature.
Sit tight. I don’t think we have long to wait.
