I’m also genuinely curious when the last time an SEC coach willingly left the conference for another college job

James Franklin left Vanderbilt for Penn State in 2013, Lane Kiffin left Tennessee for Southern Cal in 2009, and Dennis Franchione left Alabama for Texas A&M in 2002.

I don't know if you can count what Urban Meyer did as leaving the conference for another college job. He took a year off, but it was pretty clear where he was going once he had "recovered" from Saban ending his dominance.

I'm trying to think of other coaches and none are coming to mind.
