For sure.  He's an asset by how likable he is with all of his media appearances.  Any school, I'd imagine, would be thrilled if he were their HC.  Lots of money and perky offers will tossed his way like a salt lick.

The strength for Syracuse is that he gets to be the one that salvaged the once-proud and mighty program.  He has no true pressure here to constantly win 10-12 games/year here.  I think he could get there, but the admin will not be calling for his head if he's going 8-4 or 9-3.  He's 57, does he want to rebuild another program at this point?  Maybe, but not sure why.  He's going to get his deal restructured and there will be more money to toss around by the SUAD with the new ACCN and the bowl revenue.  Slightly increased attendance this year will help, too.  I'd imagine season ticket sales will see an uptick before next season when we're ranked preseason Top 25, too.  We play in a controlled climate, he has a good relationship with Wildhack, on the verge of nice facility improvements, etc.

As much as it's easy to see him leaving, I also think Syracuse offers him some very attractive perks.  "Don't fix it if it ain't broke."
