Anywhere!

Personally, I doubt that any head coach hired by a BCS school since about 
2010 will last 25 seasons.  It's a different era, ADs don't have (or aren't 
given) the patience that Devaney had with Osborne, one or two bad seasons 
and many coaches will be gone, like Chizek at Auburn.

And turnover at the assistant coach level will likely play a factor in that.

Osborne was his own OC, so there was no turnover at that position during his
tenure, but he had several DC's, starting with Monte Kiffin.  (Solich almost 
left at one point for Northern Illinois, but was made assistant head coach 
and heir-apparent.)
