As for the talk of an interim, who would come from the outside to be an interim coach? Plus, cant just hire Joe Blow off the streets. There are NCAA regs that must be met.
From the inside, maybe Whit, but really nothing to gain. Maybe one of the assistants, but still lame duck AND creates the possibility of conflict for the next coach. What if interim asst coach goes 5-0 and wins a couple games in the tournament? Would make it that much harder to hire a guy like Archie or divide the fan base even more.
The official firing takes the pressure off of Gott. Things will now be civil. No need for an interim. Heck, the team may play loose and for themselves and may actually win a game or two down the stretch.
As for the interview, Arch handled that extremely well. He said exactly what someone in his position should say. He’s obviously good with the media, but he also obviously cares about that senior class.
