First, it's the nature of the business.
Second, I bet Kelly's a bit of an asshole, my way or the Skyway.
Third, ND opens opportunities for coaches.
Fourth, not every assistant hired has been a complete boob, so many have good options for advancement.
Last, it is good to learn from others (akin to the nature of the business).

Coaches have lives, families, loyalties, opportunities, worries, you name it. There are myriad reasons for coaching turnover. Change is the one truth in life. How a HC deals with change is one of the clear indicators of that coach's ability.


great coaches have assts lining up to work for them

and - there might be a little less elasticity in the $$$ to do so.

heck - i wouldn't doubt that you could probably charge GAs to work for Saban because they know what they'd be worth after that stint vs the market.

that said - i agree with my dorsal finned friend above...
