Kirby. Here's how I think the timeline went down:

We want Kirby first but this is around the SECCG so we have to wait. He says he will consider, but must wait til after the NCG. Thus, Richt's original comment of "we'll hear something NLT the first week in january".

-Meanwhile, to pursue other options, we go after Foster first. He stays at VT.

-Next is Chavis. He shows interest but ultimately stays.

-We were NEVER serious about Koenning. KSU's people told our people that his agent blew the whole thing up in the media to get a raise out of Illinois, which he did get. Way to go agent.

-Now in January, we start talking to Grantham as a backup and he is extended an offer. This is fact.

-Kirby now declines, so my guess is Grantham is #1 on the big board. Of course, he is still coaching so who knows how long this will take
