Emmert was into academics. The athletic program was a means to an end for him. He had done it before successfully. Hiring Saban was a good decision, but just part of his plan for the University. When Gov Blanco slashed his budget to push more money to ULL she might as well have fired him. He had had offers to return to Washinton previously. That time he took it.
He went from being Chancellor at LSU to President of U of Washington. Not a lateral move. A huge promotion in responsibility, prestige, and salary. He was never previously offered that job.
