As far as Lewis, I'm sure hear realized he is a good coordinator, and that's about it.

Not going to rip your opinion. On this line inparticular I don't think that's true because it was reported he did interview for the Cincy HC position. I think he realized that being Sander's OC is a very unique opportunity. In college football the best teams stay the best teams because they get all the best players and there's no way to stop that. If you're part of one of those teams you can eventually work your way to the top (Ryan Day), but cracking in from the outside is hard. And elevating a team that's not in that small group to being a contender is very very hard because you can't compete with recruits. So when Lewis sees a HC coming to FBS that somehow managed to convince the #2 recruit in the country last year to go play FCS and that guy wants him to be his right and man, it's easy to understand why that's a wagon you want to hitch yourself to. Being a great college football coach anymore isn't so much about being a great coach... it's about recruiting a team full of NFL players.
