Look at it this way though. P5 great opportunity and money, but you don’t turn the ship around quick and it’s off with your head. Coming to UConn for the same money you can have five years to establish your roster with your recruits. If you right UConn ships around the coach maybe offered better P5 gigs. It’s just another way to look at it.
1000% coaches and players in sports are very competitive, he might want a challenge.
There is also an option to make a ton of money returning to a place he was part of and resurrect a program. He’s a hero if he pulls us over .500 in 2 years. He’s a bum if he’s just over .500 at any P5.
He may just want to come back and show up Randy Edsall, and show him how it’s done Joe Moorhead’s way. That being said, Benedict, if he hires Moorhead is going to have to be prepared to pay for an expensive group of coaching assistants.
