Serious question - not a flame - do you think Chizik or Malzahn were the first choice in the years they were hired? We know Bruce Pearl was likely AU's first choice, but Chiz & Gus were not. They didn't care b/c they were given a great opportunity to coach at a top 10-15 program in the country.
But a key is to not disclose who you have interviewed. Dick Vitale talked about this.
"I personally find it difficult to comprehend why this is played out in the media, because you look embarrassing if you don't complete the deal," he said. "Now the next guy looks like he's second and the next guy looks third. That should all be private. That should all be, I think, between the athletic department and the person they're pursuing with a very simple statement: 'If this gets out, we're withdrawing our offer.'"

I'll never withdrawl my offer to my #1 choice because a little info somehow got released to the public.
