It was in December, 2006 when Bicknell lost his job.

There was a big debate on message boards and on local radio about the firing.

Many were critical of Tech, saying "who are you going to get better than Jack Bicknell."

Interviews were held in Miami, Dallas, Atlanta, and Ruston.

Interviews included Todd Monken, Jimbo Fisher, Will Muschamp, Derek Dooley, and Kevin Sumlin, among others.

We could not afford Fisher. Muschamp turned us down. Monken, Sumlin, and Dooley all wanted the job.

We're going to attract qualified candidates who can build a program. Don't let anyone tell you we won't be able to find anyone better than Skip! The right candidates are out there!

Can we land one of them?
