The thing is, he's tainted goods right now. Especially as a HC. Yes, he could take a year off and still collect a check from UNC but does that really do anything to repair his reputation? It seems like he's not getting a lot of offers as a head coach right now and rightfully so, as UNC has been really bad the last two seasons. It would seem, that if he wants another head coaching gig, he's going to have to regain his rep as an offensive innovator. Taking a p5 OC job is just the way to do it. If he blows up at Miami or some other p5 OC job, it will prove that the problems at UNC were talent related, not coaching related.
