Big Eck usually takes his number 2 Andy Watson with him to jobs. As far as I'm aware, Burns was number 2 to Smith and McCoist was just a coach so he probably wasn't going to stay in the job if McLeish got it.
Although I've heard rumours that he never got offered an interview, despite being on the shortlist and simply walked because he was overlooked for the job again.
