Money will uproot almost everyone, Ohio is Fickell’s home, but double his salary and he will make his home in Baton Rouge. Nonsense that he will not leave Ohio because coaches are moving all the times when an ideal situation is present.

I honestly don't think Fickell is wired that way at all. Cincinnati is joining an interesting new alliance in the new Big 12 also, so intriguing things are afoot.

Besides that, Fickell just doesn't strike me as a guy who is going to do well if he leaves for a USC or an LSU. Yes, the recruiting gets easier, but I just feel like he is more of a "motivator" than great coach. I honestly think he's really good at making a Cincinnati-type team reach its full potential as opposed to managing a juggernaut with great expectations. I could be wrong.

Yep. When you make coaching football your career, moving to different cities in different states is par for the course.
