Assistant seeking new, different opportunity
"This is what Lashlee has publicly said about his decision to take a paycut and go to UConn, citing the desire to run his own offense. The thinking there is it could pave the way for better opportunities down the line; Lashlee has not been shy about his ambition to one day be a head coach.
“There’s a certain job satisfaction that is unique to each coach; everyone defines job satisfaction differently,” an industry source said, speaking generally on this scenario. “It might look like a lateral move, or worse, but that coach is saying, ‘What are my career goals and am I on the right path? I may have a top-10-type job from an objective standpoint, but am I taking steps in the way that I want to go?”
Another source in the sport added: “It’s not about the money, at least in its immediacy. You want to be strategic in decision-making. You may take a sidestep or a step back — in pay — but ultimately, (that move) can catapult you to maybe a better offensive coordinator (job) or a head job.”"
