Probably thinking if we miss Mario first, we announce the AD after that and calm the masses by making a big hire and putting out a statement that Manny has to win (they’ve put out this statement twice in 2019, once in 2020, and once already in 2021). Makes me nervous that was their reasoning for...

Can you imagine whiffing on Mario, announcing you’re bringing back Manny (gonna get loud and toxic in public - more than it already is), and then losing or getting blown out in a bowl game? I can’t see him surviving that regardless of what happens with Mario. Manny might force their hand himself

The only alternative explanation for holding him is to limit distractions and the obvious questions media would be asking mario if the job were open. Other than that there’s zero reason to hold him in purgatory unless there’s a chance he returns.

If he knows the list of candidates is impressive then he would know specific names. Conveniently he doesn’t have the intel to put that out there until Mike Ryan says multiple P5 ADs are interested.
