Which is a fair middle ground. I have a stint of 3 jobs in 3 years which is pretty easily explainable and what's lead me more to the do what's best for you mindset in hiring and applying to jobs.
Oh sure there's definitely a down fall, I'm just finding in my experience that its much less common than say when my parents were my age. My dad's been doing HR for the same company for 30 some years now. Even from the time I graduated 10 years ago to now his advice has shifted drastically from basically the "don't leave anywhere" mentality to "leaving is often the only way to make a substantial career advancement"

I hear you, I do. This is not the world of pensions and working for GM for 30 years. I get it. But you are free to hop jobs every year, I am free to not consider that particular resume/person.

Probably because it's 20+ years old?
Paying the talent has less to do with the coaching staff and more to do with the school.
I believe there are companies that facilitizing this now. I also know that on a visit to VT with one of my executives 8 or so years ago, some one from the engineering department delivered a sub sandwich to him via drone when he was at VTTI.
And that's all well and good, but if there is a pattern of changing jobs every year, I am not likely to hire them. Hiring and training new employees is time consuming and expensive (I've done it numerous times), so someone with a pattern of leaving jobs after a year or two is going to get passed over, because they will not likely stay and I will have wasted the time, money and effort to train them.
And it's very likely that no matter what I offer or the environment they are in, they will become dissatisfied. Some people are not wired to stay in the same place for very long (and that's ok).
Yeah, I'm sure the guy who currently hosts this podcast wouldn't want to come back to VT if he ends up being successful at coaching.

If a company wants loyalty then they should sign me to a 20 year contract. No company has offered me that yet.
All you have to do to put things into perspective is flip the script. Picture you own a business and the reason you're in business is to make money; it's how you make a living. What decisions are you going to make? When business is slow/down are you going to keep the size of your workforce the same and pay them money/benefits when it puts you in the red? When things are good and you need to hire someone to work in your business are you going to look more at the person that has had multiple job changes in over a short period or are you going to look at the person that doesn't job hop as much? Do you want stability or uncertainty?

Is this really any different from any of the other nonsense on there?
I don't think so.
Amazon is working on drone technology to deliver packages.
When people figure out they can get take out food delivered by drone, they'll get over it really quickly.
social media is for memes tho
It's not a fair to compare this year with last year in consideration of the loss of walk-ons and such due to the change in roster size.
No context on how many are in portal because they had no spot on their team.
Wow, Congratulations!
Not unless there's money/lifestyle involved.
Sure, but it's certainly not what you want in an OL coach, where consistency and development are two of the most important aspects of the job.
Good on him. While I get that #7 is a highly controversial figure IMO the man did his time and if he wants to get into coaching I'm glad there are schools that'll talk to him about it.
