re: Whats the difference when coaches change schools and they chasing the fat contracts

A coach’s career can last 50-plus years. The average coaching tenure at a school is around 5 years, longer than the average college player’s career. Are you suggesting that Brian Kelly leaving Notre Dame after 11 years is similar to a college football player leaving after 1?

You are making the point that the player and coach careers are comparable.

If a player had 50 year college career, then we would expect them to stay longer at the school. If a coach had 3-5 years to make their career, we would expect them to move to the best possible position to achieve that goal.
