      I stayed as OC of UNLV for 4 seasons, mostly cause I wasn't too enthralled with the job offers after each season, and I had a pretty good QB/WR combo from my recruiting work. After 3 bowl games (2w, 1l) and 1 year MW conference champions, I get an offer for head coach at Oklahoma. Uh, ok. And a lot of other options (no teams over 4 stars) but I thought that was pretty funny.

          I was the OC at Wake Forest and after my second year there (we won the National Championship against Boise St.) JoePa retired from Penn St. and they offered me the Head Coaching position there but I turned it down because I still had another year as the OC at Wake Forest and I had a good recruiting class coming in and a returning heisman running back and a good quarterback.

            Sadly, I am head coach of San Jose State for going on 5th season, won 2 national championships. The best offer I had for head coach for another school was ball state. Really? lol and some bigger name schools as OC. No thanks considering Im the head coach.

              And all of the posts in this thread go to show how the coaching carousel needs some serious work, although the OP has the most realistic story.

                  I was the head coach at Navy and I got offered the head coaching job at Georgia, after 3 winning seasons at Navy. I haven't had a problem getting job offers. I waited three seasons to get the job I thought was good.

                      I started my most recent dynasty with UNC with a three year contract as head coach. We won the NC my first season and I was offered a contract extension of three years which I turned down. I was also offered a few OC jobs at mid level schools such as: Texas Tech, Illinois, et cetera. The only decent head coaching job that I was offered was Syracuse.

                      In year two, we won the NC again. I wasn't offered a contract extension nor was I offered any coaching job at any school in the country. Unbelievable...

                      Then in year three, we lost the NC to Alabama and I wasn't offered a single head coaching job other than UNC. Oklahoma(12-2 resigned Stoops), LSU (11-2 fired Milesand promoted DC Chavis), Notre Dame (4-8 resigned Kelly), USF (4-8 resigned Holtz), Kentucky (3-9 resigned Phillips), Colorado (3-9 resigned Embree), Michigan State (12-2 resigned Dantonio), Oregon (11-2 resigned Kelly), Penn State (12-2 resigned Paterno), USC (8-5 fired Kiffin and hired Snyder HC from EMU who was 3-9), Texas (9-3 fired Brown and hired OC Koenning from Miss St who was 4-8, TCU (11-3 resigned Patterson), et cetera.

                      So now I can either accept the OC position at UNC where I was the head coach with 2 NCs in 3 years or just go back to where my game had been saved last...

                        was the offensive coordinator at new mexico for a 2 seasons and won the national championship my first year then simmed through second. Joe paterno retired so the head coach job at penn state was open. Came in to the top recruiting class so I got lucky.

                          I spent 5 years as an OC at Rice (2) Louisville (1) and Texas (2). All of my years we were top top in the NCAA in total yards, PPG, and either rushing OR passing including my last year at Texas where we were 1st in passing and 3rd in rushing.

                          I was offered Ole Miss multiple times, Vanderbilt, Penn State, Indiana, Washington, Washington State. I have gotten about every 1-3* job offer a coach can get. I think the system needs tweaking but I think it does a good job, my prestige is a B+ and all the top programs have A coaches.

                          Maybe my time is coming. I just took the head coaching job at Minnesota who was 1-11 the year before and we are currently 5-1. I would like to end up at a big time school but I don't see any of these coaches getting fired.

                            In my dynasty, I started out as Head Coach with UNLV.

                            2011: 5-7
                            2012: 8-5 (lost bowl game)
                            Signed an extension with UNLV.
                            2013: 9-4 (lost bowl game)
                            Did some conference re-shuffling, UNLV joined the Big 12 (Big 12 top teams moved on to other conferences; Pac-12/SEC)
                            2014: 8-5 (won Cotton Bowl)

                            Received HC offers from Missouri (SEC now), UCLA, Ole Miss to name a few. Took the offer from Missouri. Seems pretty good to me...
