NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Reports that Amy Adams Strunk will try to remove herself from the Titans coaching search don’t match up with what I am hearing about the team’s process for choosing the replacement for Brian Callahan/Mike McCoy.
After Sunday’s finale in Jacksonville, the better part of the next two weeks will be spent conducting virtual interviews with a candidate list of about a dozen people.
Strunk won’t be involved in those interviews, though her football people may point her to some for review in advance of second-round, in person interviews, of which she will be part.
Those are expected to take place the week of January 19, though some could be put in flux by the continued playoff involvement of a candidates current team. Four teams will be heading toward the conference championships.
That’s roughly how the process worked for the Titans a year ago as they narrowed a field of 10 candidates to six finalists for general manager.
At the very least Strunk will give a final blessing to Borgonzi’s selection, as she did with Chad Brinker’s selection of Borgonzi.
I’m not sure how her presence in interviews and the same process as unfolded for the last big hire just a year ago is being characterized as any sort of reduction in her involvement.
On Friday, the Titans announced another reshuffling of their front office.
