Davy Fitzgerald and Liam Sheedy have been linked to the role recently.
Johnny Kelly has emerged as the new frontrunner to become manager of the Offaly senior hurlers.
Former Tipperary boss Liam Sheedy had been linked with the job, following Michael Fennelly's departure.
But Kelly - who served as a coach as part of Fennelly's management team - is now favourite for the role.
Despite plenty of rumour, Midlands 103 commentator Joe Troy says there's nothing confirmed yet:
