One would think this information was "given" to Patty McGeek by USM in order to leak and fly a test balloon on public opinion. Patty doesn't actually work for any leads in general and giving it to him gives it to the important media outlets to see who will run with it and what will be the response. Not many large outlets have picked it up so thats a positive if we move forward.
In order for Briles to actually be in Hattiesburg also indicates that this interview process has been ongoing before todays campus visit and would also indicate that an offer is probably prepared today assuming his meetings with Bennett, Hop and Mitchell are positive.
If he accepts, now you have to look to see who he will bring on for his staff. Part of the deal will be accepting our new OL coach from Alcorn but who will he bring in for other positions? Wouldn't be completely surprised to see the name June Jones come up since they are good friends and he is available now since he left his Canada job about 45 days ago.
