Look its all a matter of opportunity in the coaching business, its a nomadic culture anyway,
If im looking into openings to make my own way I look at the following
1) a chance to turn around a floundering offense in a P5 conference that already has a good running game and play most of its games in a fat trach dome or in southern weather
2) a coach currently that even if i turn around the offense is on shaky ground which if I do my job may lead to an opportunity for me for bigger and better things
3) Even if the coach stays on i can establish my credentials to produce and offense that gives me better OC jobs
4) almost all of this year's marque hc jobs are already gone so my next best opportunity ios to showcase mt skills and organization as an OC at a school that already has a couple of nice pieces to build on.
The big drawback is obviously the possible status of the current head coach which is both a problem and an opportunity.
If i dont see a better opportunity where i am i see a big chance for me to showcase my skills at both the school and other potential suitors who can offer me a better opportunity. If i have been passed over for head coaching jobs because i work under a great coach now or because i dont have experience at a P5 or people just say oh he already took over a good offense, this is my chance to really showcase my skills to bring instant results. So that works for me either as a steppingstone or possible replacement for the current coach.
