Not sure I would. He has 5 million at Cincinnati and would have gotten an easy raise headed to the Big 12. Wisconsin will want a championship which he won't get unless Ohio State and Michigan leave the conference. 

It isn't just money, it is job security and at UC he'd have been secure for a long time. I think 4 years is all he gets in Wisconsin. I see Butch Jones version 2.0. Left for a better conference but not a team that could complete with the top 2.
