Update: ESPN's Pete Thamel Says No Imminent Decision On Georgia Tech Search

In this story:
It appeared late on Sunday evening that Georgia Tech had its new football coach after multiple reports suggested that Tulane head coach Willie Fritz was going to be the next head coach of the Yellow Jackets.
I’m told Georgia Tech has reached a deal for a new head coach from all indications it is Willie Fritz. Team meeting tonight.

However as the night went on, other reports seemed to trickle out that suggested otherwise.
I need to clarify and retract my earlier tweet about the Georgia Tech coaching search and will accept all grief directed my way. My understanding is that a deal is not in place. However, all signs point to Willie Fritz as Tech's next head coach.https://t.co/QMpUjP9SUa

Sources: Georgia Tech interviewed Tulane coach Willie Fritz today. No deal has been struck to make him Tech’s next coach. Fritz is a top candidates, but there’s other interviews scheduled for upcoming days.

So the search is still ongoing. This morning, ESPN's Pete Thamel said that there is no imminent decision regarding Georgia Tech's head coaching decision and they are interviewing a new candidate today and multiple coaches coaching in the upcoming championship weekend are still in contention for the head coaching job at Georgia Tech.
Sources: No imminent decision on the Georgia Tech football coaching search. Tech has an interview with a new candidate scheduled today. It is still pursuing multiple coaches playing in championship games this weekend.

So after things changing back and forth over the course of a couple of hours on Sunday, Georgia Tech still does not have a head coach and it is unclear when they will hire one. It could still be Fritz that gets the job at the end of all of this.
Coaching searches can be unpredictable and rumors are sure to be flying about this coaching job this week.
