Unless he was led to believe that accepting a DC position would directly and quickly lead him back to a HC position in the NFL, I would think him smarter to stay put and comfortable.

Are you pretty sure about the $850k avg? that seems low. I was thinking at least 1.5 minimum. However, I have zero, Nill, naughta, knowledge on this. Just don’t seem right.
