It's incredibly naive to think he wouldn't leave for 3-4x pay in a place like Indy.
Why? All he had to do was agree to having Tomsula as DC and he turned down the job. He wanted Fangio or one of the guys from the Ravens staff (forgot his name) and when the 49ers said no he stopped talking to them. He also turned down their OC job when Tomsula came calling.
You guys think it's all about the money and you know nothing about his previous interviews/ offers or what he wants. You're all just talking out of your ass. Give me a legit situation and I'll belive you but money is not the only or key factor. Gase has gotten advice from a lot of ex-head coaches and given his response in several areas it's obvious he wants the right situation.
If you were offered two options, a raise tomorrow but it would be only for three years and you would never see that kind of money again or the same raise in three years but you knew you would have that till you retired, which would you work towards?
Gase wants to be a head coach but he does not want to go the route of Josh McDaniels. He's also very specific about who he wants on his staff. He's not getting any staff from us since fox needs these guys to continue the system Gase started or risk a fall out with a new system and play caller. He's not getting fangio or any of our defensive staff either. Who the fuck is Gase going to bring with him? Being a successful head coach is partly due to who you can bring into the building with him. Gase does not have that luxury right now.
You guys try to make it so simple. Like, derp, he can coach Luck, er Tannehill, er Stafford and make derp money and then you stop thinking. It's not that simple and Gase is not that dumb.
