There's increasing speculation that Colts coach Tony Dungy will step down after the playoffs are over. That speculation was fueled even further by a report in the Tampa Tribune that Dungy's son has enrolled in a high school in the Tampa area.
Dungy has often said he'd relocate to Tampa once his coaching days are done.
Would it surprise me to see Dungy retire after the playoffs? Absolutely not. In fact, I wrote a column during training camp suggesting that there was a very good chance this would be Dungy's last year.
Looks like we'll get our answer in the coming weeks.
If Dungy does decide to step down, look for Colts assistant head coach Jim Caldwell to be the front-runner to be his replacement.

Tony Dungy is a class act. I wish him well whatever he does.
Dungy certainly is a class act... but this HAS to be an indication that he's retiring... the last time he had a son in school in Tampa while he was coaching... well, I can't imagine ANY parent would feel comfortable creating that situation again.
