That would be a significant drop in pay.  I can't find the exact figures, but he just signed a 6 year, 21M extension at UI.  Average defensive coordinator salary in the NFL is listed as around 850K.

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.
