Was he even being considered

Yes.

At least three teams contacted him. The prevailing theory is that he'd be better as an NFL head coach than a college one, and his 'style' would be a better fit with professional athletes than college athletes.

They're probably just trying to interview him to comply with the Rooney Rule and they're sick of interviewing and turning down the same 6 black head coaching candidates.
