Sark was a Power 5 head coach at two well respected programs. If Sark is going to be in college football it stands to reason he wants to be a head coach again. Sark may have told Saban he'd stick around for a while but I don't even think Saban would expect Sark to turn down a Power 5 head coaching job to remain his OC. Lastly, coaching on the Power 5 level is strictly business. These coaches are looking out for themselves.

Another thing. Sark and Kiffin have seen their friend and former coworker who wasn't even a coordinator, Ed Orgeron, have success in the SEC. Man, you know both of those guys think they can coach circles around Orgeron and they can have success in the SEC too.

Agreed. My only caveat would be that with Sark's track record he probably only gets one more chance at being a HC at a power 5 program. Why risk it at clanga? You'd think he'd be very careful in choosing where he takes his last shot.

I think you could reasonably expect him to turn down a P5 job that is a guaranteed failure and HC career ending move. As others have said, look at MSU’s situation and there is no visible path past 5-6 wins for the next several years.
