Why would he quit? He's in about a no-pressure situation as there could ever be in college football. A great, supportive fanbase that always packs 80K into the stadium for a program that traditionally has only won 6 bowl games EVER.
Not that I think the program is going to go anywhere as long as he's there, but he has every incentive to not leave on his own.
All he has to do is average 7/8 wins/year and a bowl win every 3rd year and he's still easily goign to be the most successfull headcoach Carolina's had in a generation or two.

Sounds like you don't think his heart is in it. Which I would agree with. He is a good coach, but he just doesn't seem the same as he was when he was helping send LSU football to the 9th layer of hell.

Yes, but it must be awfully uncomfortable constantly living in the shadow of Paul Dietzel's 1969 ACC championship.
