Now, here’s an interesting name I thought of a couple of weeks back in relation
to the Steelers GM job and external candidates and I’d had conversations with a
couple of people around his possible candidacy and everyone agreed that he
would be a very good person to speak to and it is coming to pass - the Steelers
are interviewing ESPN’s Louis Riddick for the GM job.
He would be perfect, IMO. Former Pitt player, so he checks that box, worked in
personnel before, everyone who knows him speaks incredibly highly of him, he
understands the culture of the game well and knows the game inside and out.
Compared to the three guys they interviewed last week, I think he is the best
external candidate for the job.
I still think it will be a job share between Hunt and Khan, but this is my guy
if I’m going to bring someone in from the outside.
