Why do people assume that coaches like Gran/Wilson/Thompson/etc. who might take another job somewhere else are dishonest? It's a better opportunity if they leave. Plain and simple. I highly doubt that Gran or anyone else promised a recruit that they would be here for all 4 years of their playing days. Get real.
They are offering him the job as the RB coach. It's a lateral move. Gran will stay in Knoxville and be rewarded handsomely by Hamilton and Kiffin imo...
I don't think he's trying to say they are dishonest if they leave for another job. I think he's saying that it would be a little hypocritical for a coach to leave and start telling one of his prime recruits that his new school was the best place for the recruit, when for the entire past year he had been selling that recruit on Tennessee.
Don't really know what he is being hired for, but if it is just RB's Coach I think you will end up being right. We will match their offer for sure. I doubt he will want to continually move his family around.

I seriously hope this doesn't play out... Gran was a terror in Florida...
Choppy waters ahead for recruiting....
