If there was any question regarding Mike Tomlin's desire to remain the head coach of the Steelers, he quashed it emphatically at his press conference on Tuesday.
Asked about speculation in recent weeks that he might be interested in becoming the head coach at LSU or USC, two high-profile college football jobs that recently became open, Tomlin, who had been in a good mood earlier in the press conference, immediately went with a far harsher tone.
"Hey guys, I don't have time for that speculation. That's a joke to me," said Tomlin, whose team is off to a 3-3 start heading into Sunday's game against the Browns in Cleveland.
