Shanahan laughs off coaching rumors

Posted: January 26th, 2009 | Adam Schefter |

Late Friday afternoon, when multiple reports surfaced that Kansas City and Mike Shanahan were close to a deal that would make him the next head coach of the Chiefs, the former Broncos coach could not be found. He was missing for a brief time, his cell phone going directly to voice mail.

Shanahan quickly found out the fuss he indirectly and unknowingly had created. When he walked off the golf course and into the clubhouse after playing 18, multiple golfers asked Shanahan if it were true he was closing in on a deal with the Chiefs.

Shanahan laughed. He had heard the rumors since Thursday morning, when members of his former coaching staff began calling to ask him if it were true that he was going to Kansas City.

As he told the people in the golf clubhouse, there was nothing new Friday that hadn’t been true on Thursday. He had not had any contact with the Chiefs, didn’t plan to have any contact with the Chiefs, and would not be coaching the Chiefs.
In other words, he would have more time to play golf.

That was my first thought when I heard Scheffter on Sirius last Friday.

Well that settles it, err wait...

I don't really want the guy here, but they sure are pushing the "No way" card awfully hard.

**OnTheWarpath58** · 01-26-2009, 10:31 AM

Well, someone is flat-out lying.

Shanahan is saying he's had no contact with the Chiefs, and at least one source inside Arrowhead is saying that Shanahan HAS talked to the Chiefs.

Shanahan has a reason to lie, but what benefit is there for a source inside the organization to tell someone like Mortenson that there has been talks between the Chiefs and Shanny?
