If he goes to Houston I hope we blow them out and they lose every game...just as I wish if he was not there. I could care less about any other school but USF and I don't give s **** who their coach is

If I were Leavitt I wouldn't be so petty as to allow grudges drive my career decisions.....

If I were Leavitt, I would take the job right away and destroy the conference, rub it in our dumb administrators faces.

This separation of powers is bad. A coach says no thanks to Houston for a coordinator job...

Maybe he realized he didn't want the hassle of being CEO, and actually wanted to return to a level where he could excel. c.f The Peter Principle

This is what I'm thinking, too.  The guy really seem to love coaching defense, I'm not sure he was ever cut out to be a HC and I think he might have realized it.

Auburn is paying $1.6 million to Muschamp to be the DC.  It's a way safer job than jumping in at HC at Houston.  I highly doubt Houston was going to be much higher than that.  Not to mention the he wouldn't get close to half the assistant pool he had at Florida.

Tougher job as DC though. They are anxious to be superior to Bama. Good luck stopping Saban. Wonder how long he gets.

Didn't realize he was the DC at Auburn when we beat them in '07

Muschamp is an absolutely proven defensive mind and has been in the SEC the last 4 years.  He knows exactly what he's getting into at Auburn.  Houston's the more risky job for him and it pays marginally better if at all.

DCs not only get fired at whim, they ride the shirt tails of the HC. Auburn wants to return to the Cam Newton glory days and compete for NCs. And they have the money to fire and hire at whim. The DC they just fired, losing the #1 pass rusher for the season, Carl Lawson, didn't help him keep his job.

He could get fired next year from Auburn and still pick up a Houston level HC job.  If he washes out from Houston, he's done as a HC.
