NFL: Sources: Saints to hire Rob Ryan

[Beef]

And funny how La Canfora was saying this was already a done deal a week or so before Ryan was "supposedly" even interviewed. I really can't stand that dude, but he's usually not that far off with his information. He's not psychic. He heard something from what now appears to have been a very credible source.

It's going to be funny when we find out that Payton didn't actually misspeak and he just slipped up admitting that Ryan was coming for a second interview. I mean you're going to push away potential candidates if they know some other guy already has a second interview scheduled before you have your first. So I can understand why they might have tried to keep that under wraps if it were the case.
