It’s the sound of laser printers humming all over the Pitt Athletic Department as the football coaches are printing out updated resumes after word of this leaked.

Dave Wannstedt may have coached his last game for the Miami Dolphins.

With his team at 1-8, Wannstedt was expected to resign Tuesday, according to reports late Monday from ESPN’s Hank Goldberg and on the The Miami Herald’s Web site and two South Florida television stations. A third TV station, WTVJ, said Wannstedt already resigned.

Before this season, Wannstedt never won less than 9 games with the Dolphins.

Wannstedt met Monday night at the team’s complex with owner Wayne Huizenga, who confirmed an announcement will be made Tuesday.

“Dave called me and we got together, but I’m not going to comment at this point,” Huizenga told The Associated Press.

The Herald, citing anonymous club sources and an NFL source in its report, also said defensive coordinator Jim Bates will be named interim coach at a news conference Tuesday.

Now I don’t know if Wannstedt will really be Pitt’s next head coach. I just know this has been the strongest rumor. This would give him a month to start making calls and discreetly putting together a list of coaches on a staff. And to think, Larry Fitzgerald may have been the one to do it with his game winning catch against Miami.
