very good question...my guess is that they might be able to make more money coaching at UT with fewer work hours...
My old college coach who coached in the NFL and now coaches at LSU told me he rather coach in the NFL due to the hours.(I fill like I said "coach" too many times lol) NFL is more like a 9-5 job with a couple of months off if your not in the playoffs. College is more like 12-14 hour days with barely 2 weeks off due to recruiting. In the NFL each team has their own scouting team and GM. The coaches get to discuss what their needs are but they don't have to do the job finding them. He also mentioned that in college you have to worry a bit more about your players than in the NFL.
Just thought y'all might would like a little insight from a coaches prospective.
ETA: To say he said it was more like a 9-5, it isn't a 9-5. Sorry about that. They do a lot of film work and break down.

Urban: No, why would he leave Ohio State with the lack of competition and it being his home?
Harbaugh: No.
Tomlin: No.
Fisher: Why would he leave Fla State? He's got a good thing going and the schools are essentially the same.
Strong: What has he done to earn a tier 1 job like Texas?
Malzahn: too much of a wildcard. Needs to be at a
"little brother" school to do well; does amazing things as an underdog.
Michigan state guy: Meh, okay....but he's already got a good thing going. Why bother leaving?
Mora: I might be able to see it, but right now he's doing well turning that program around at UCLA with a chance to knock USC out for years to come. Why bother?
The only guy I could possibly see is Del Rio.
or Saban

NFL Head Coaches work far more than most college coaches, and its extremely well documented and basically a fact. They work obscene hours. They basically work 15 hour days 7 days a week from Late July until their team is eliminated.
Just ask Steve Spurrier.
