Is AU in a lose-lose situation?

Situation 1:
Malzahn drops a couple this year due to DEFs figuring out ways to stop HUNH. Eventually Plateaus as a 3rd-place SECw team.
Which IMO is not a win for me.
Situation 2:
Malzahn creates an unstoppable monster, is considered to be a coaching genius and receives numerous offers from other programs that may seem more desirable to him. He leaves.
I am not that obsessed that if he left i would cry about it. I would still be a little upset.
Situation 3:
Up-Tempo offenses become more successful and NFL teams start looking for coaches to lead them whether as an OC or a HC. Malzahn, if he continues his success, he will be a top target.

Situation 4: Malzahn goes back to high school and Auburn hires Petrino.

Where would he go that would be more desirable to him ? It would have to be inside the SEC, because going to another league would be a step down.

I like this more.
I can see Gus staying at Auburn for a long time, even with great success.

Situation 4:
Saban retires, Gus goes to Bama, Freeze wins two womens BB national championships, Bielema goes to Auburn and makes them play "man-style, American" football, and I'm no longer constipated.

Texas, Oklahoma, Florida State, USC, UCLA, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Penn State, Arkansas ring a bell?

Situation 5.1 - Gus leaves Auburn to become a Buddhist monk, Saban retires and is replaced by Tommy Tuberville, Gene Chizik is hired by Auburn.

unfortunately this is true... fandom aside, as a business man/coach anyone of these options holds more value than AU with the exception of Arky(that would be personal) and i dont think Penn St will be up there to much longer...
get mad all you want, it was a simple curiosity question. didnt mean to rustle

Why would those be more desirable ?
1. Money- AU can match any amount those other schools offer
2. Facilities- AU can match any of those schools facilities.
3. Recruiting Base- There are more DI Athletes within 250 miles of AU than any of Those Schools.
4. Fan Support- you tell me.

Situation 5.1(a) - Gus leaves Auburn to coach the Dallas Cowboys; Bruce Pearl takes on double-duties as Auburn's basketball and football coaches, multiple MNCs ensue; Alabama hires Phil Jackson, who is knocking on death's door, gives him a fedora, and builds him a statue; Mike Price emerges as the coach of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and they win back to back MNCs and rustle jimmies all across the Southeast
