Didn't his contract have a brief window each year in which he could  
leave UF, and that was when he left?

IIRC, the timing of the window itself was chosen by UF to minimize  
the distraction on the team during a bowl game while leaving enough  
time for the successor to step in before signing day.

It's a little harsh to criticize a coach for living up to his contract.
