He would bail at the first sign of success. This program needs a “lifer” someone that loves the area and the school so much,  that they would not want to leave. 

And what if that lifer looks like Jeff Scott?

Frost and Taggart both had success with G5 programs in Florida and both chased the $$$ to the P5 and both face planted.  I wonder why some of these guys aren’t content making a couple of million a year and winning games in the G5.  I guess they all have egos big enough to think they’ll win a natty.  Realistically Frost nor Taggart were never going to win a natty.

Egos? They want to play for the schools that made them excited about the sport and profession they hopefully love. It’s no different than someone relentlessly pursuing their dream job or profession. Not everyone wants to be complacent! Screw complacency! Freaking problem with people these days.

I get a lot of us feel that way.

 

But MOST SCHOOLS have two choices ...  Get a coach who is a lifer, which often means mixed results... or Get a coach who can win championships, which often means they'll be moving to a new school for more money.

simple answer

people that are ambitious love the challenge 

people that love money never have enough

people that have both are usually very very successful

But you also need to know your limitations and not gas up your head too much too quickly.  I've seen it in the big corporate world as well.  Some really big falls...

But you also need the actual skills for the opportunity or the ability to quickly grow into it.
