Notice that Shafer was in the running for Western Michigan's head spot. First I have heard that. Add to that the tidbits coming out that Marrone was asking about NFL jobs prior to the bowl game and interviewed with Tennessee, it seems that Shafer had been tabbed as the head coach-in-waiting for some time.

he's turned down a few MAC HC jobs because his family wanted him to stay in Syracuse while his son was in HS.
