Mike Tomlin Was Pissed That He’s Mentioned As A Candidate For USC HC Job: “There’s Not A Booster With A Big Enough Blank Check”

Mike Tomlin’s name popped up earlier this week in regards to the vacant head coaching job at USC but after the Steelers coach addressed the matter, I don’t think anyone will ever mention his name in regards to any college coaching job again.

Tomlin addressed the media on Tuesday and was asked about the speculation and let’s just say Tomlin was.. pissed about it:

“That’s a joke to me. I got one of the best jobs in professional sports. Why would I have any interest in coaching college football?” Tomlin said. Tomlin went on to say that “you can never say never. But NEVER.”
