I flew down last night. This morning I rode the streetcar to the French Market and got into a discussion with a very knowledgeable Memphis fan. We talked about the game.
The subject turned to the coaches. He mentioned Pastner's sizable buyout and the fact that there area number of deep pockets who could pay it.
Finally, and this rumor is intended for amusement purposes only, he claimed that Fran had expressed interest in the the job if Pastner were fired. I told him no way, but this stone-sober, 65 year old man swore that it was true.
So far the only colleges I've seen represented, besides LSU and others from the SEC were from Penn State. I gave them a nod and a hairy eye.
