Anderson focuses on bowl, not jobs

JONESBORO -- Blake Anderson turned his attention to the Cure Bowl on Thursday, but not until after taking a handful of questions regarding a brief period in which his name was connected to reports of coaching vacancies in his native Texas.

And while Anderson said a report earlier this week that said he was "negotiating" with officials from Baylor "wasn't a tremendous amount of fun," he hopes such attention comes every season. If not, he said during a news conference to preview the Dec. 17 game against Central Florida, then he's not doing his job correctly.

"That means we're winning enough games and I'm attractive as a head coach," Anderson said.
