As of midnight last night, no further updates or reports or rumors hit the interwebs regarding where things stand after Eric Bienemy’s interview with the Texans yesterday. There were some clues that EB might be in the lead for the job, but no solid intel that indicates that an agreement is near.
I’m not sure who the source is, but this particular tweet didn’t mince words and wasted no time getting to the point.
One of the clues involved the Eagles having requested, just a few days ago on January 16, to interview Bienemy. Brian Daboll announced he was returning to the Bills for 2021. Daboll is said to have had no interest in the Eagles HC opening, prompting John Lopez to put forth his speculation as to why Daboll more or less didn’t think the Eagles job was worth his time and energy even if he were to be asked to interview by the Eagles.
The gang at Texans Unfiltered has been on a decent, steady climb with their production of nearly non-stop Texans news, rumors, “sources say” stuff, and various commentary pieces such as breakdown videos and podcasts and live streaming video sessions on the regular. The tweet below was posted in the comments area yesterday, but here it is again. This is admittedly another one of things that you have to wonder a) Who is their source(s), and b) if it’s someone within the Texans organization…how the hell has the person not been discovered yet by the organization? Here’s the tweet that gives some rather specific information.
That was about it for the day. Who knows where things go from here. The Texans sort of closed out the day by letting people know who they’ve interviewed recently. I anticipated that it would be EB and that an announcement would be released that an agreement had been made by the end of the day or sometime Monday evening, but I came up snake eyes on my hunch. Where do you think things go from here?
