You've got a 1999 mindset... when it comes to head coaching hires, the game has completely changed over the last decade.

Every single Power 5 program has boat loads of money to spend on coaches. The days of a major program like AU stealing a successful coach from a lesser P5 program are all but over. There will be exceptions, but that's the new normal... get used to it.

This is why Gary Patterson never left. TCU kept matching and raising. He has seen plenty of interviews and is one hell of a coach.

If you think money is the only factor then you're kidding yourself. AU can outspend all but the most elite schools and there's also the matter of program visibility, history, etc.
