From previous interviews, it sounds like Venables isn't

interested in a HC gig right now (maybe never)...
So what are the odds he'd be interested in coaching a D in the NFL? I mean, if he keeps up the great work, someone's bound to come knocking...
I don't think he goes anywhere anytime soon. I think he's having too much fun with the influx of talent...make his job easier. Just curious if the NFL is maybe the next step for him.

I think he is happy where he is coaching defense. In interviews he never struck me as the "front man", or someone you would see leading a program.
Who know though?

As a HC he would need an ample get back coach budget. That is more than a one man job

With the kind of money assistant coaches and Coordinators

make these days, its getting to be almost a secondary consideration. Doesn't seem that long ago, assistant coaches at Clemson were making $20,000 - $30,000 and Co-ordinators a little less than double that per year. Nowadays, the equipment guys probably make a ton more than that...:~)

I think our equipment managers get paid in hugs

He loves Clemson and is LOYAL. He never would have left Oklahoma if not for Stoops bringing his fired brother back.

I think he will get a HC job

I don't think he came to Clemson just because he had no options or lost interest at OK. He is a very well respected coach and if he can put out a top 30-35 defense this year, after losing 80% of his playmakers on the DL/LB, a school with a need just has to take notice. With the raise he got, and the fact he seems very happy at Clemson, it will take a great opportunity for him to jump ship. However, I know some Kansas State football folks (they love him) and I firm believe he is on many program's radar.
He is probably my favorite coach, along with Brooks, and will hate it when he leaves but I will support whatever he thinks is best for him and his family/future.
