FWIW "Better job" is an entirely relative term, but to disregard potential salary is an asinine thing to try and do. I realize that you don't have a job and/or said job probably pays minimum wage, but to most normal human beings there are a few major criteria that come into play when determining whether a position is the right one for you.

1) Salary
2) Potential to succeed
3) Leadership/Relationships with coworkers (ability to attract staff in the coaching world)
4) Quality of life

This is by no means an exhaustive list but would imagine if you polled the audience, some version of those would come up.

Let's think about this from a school to school comparison:
1) Salary. This part is obvious, Alabama has shown a propensity/willingness to pay more for coaches than Clemson. Budget is larger, alumni association with more support.

2) This one is a bit trickier to assess. Technically speaking, one *could* argue that Clemson has the easier path to a conference championship most years, however, given Alabama's recent dominance and ability to continue attracting top tier talent (and that NCAA football is unlike the NFL and dynasty programs are actually possible) it would be difficult to say they don't have a legitimate shot at making it to the playoffs every season. In this regard, it's probably best to look at past performance to measure... again this is not in Clemson's favor.

3) In the business world, this is easier to assess. From a coaching perspective, Alabama is seen as a destination place for assistant coaches at this point. Assistants at the program are quickly making their way up the ranks into OC/DC/HC positions. I will admit to not being intimately familiar with Clemson's coaching tree, but would say I'd be shocked if it was in the same ballpark.

4) This might be the one place where Clemson wins. There is a shitload of pressure to win at Alabama. Not to say there is no pressure at Clemson, but it would not be in the same realm. *But* top tier coaches typically are a different breed (save Urban Meyer?) largely living on and thriving in the pressure. (I say this fully aware that Mark Richt does not fit this mold, criminally underperforming in pressure situations.)

Ultimately, I don't really care here as I don't have a dog in the fight, but 8/10 for the effort here. You definitely got the Bammers a little rustled.
