No, but I do love people bloviating about stuff they don't understand.
Is it possible Wellman is making informal contacts with representatives of certain coaches? Sure. Are we conducting a "search" without firing Coach [Redacted]? No way. Auburn did that with Petrino while Tubberville was the coach and got reamed for it.
That was different. The Auburn AD and some boosters flew to Louisville to offer the job to Petrino in the middle of the season. Without asking Petrino's AD for permission. Oh, and the biggie - Tuberville had been pretty successful at Auburn, having finished ranked in the top 15 or so the previous season. I don't think Bz would be all that shocked that Wellman is out taking prospective coaches' temperatures on the impending opening at Wake.
