I think it should be considered a little stronger than reassuring. If they stay, it's a pretty strong indication that the staff is buying into the Stanford program and it's potential.
The Michigan site says that Turley was offered $400K per year by Michigan. So, a traditional storied program offers our guy what I assume is a significant raise (though perhaps not - I don't know what he is making) and he turns it down.

Anderson was supposedly offered the DC position over current DCs DJ Durkin (Florida) and Mattison (Michigan holdover), presumably with a significant raise, and is facing a Stanford team with up to 8 starters and 2 significant contributors leaving (Parry, Anderson, Leuders, Tarpley, Vaughters, Carter, Richards, Hoffpaiur (baseball), Lyons, Olugbode) - yet apparently he also is choosing to stay.
Of course now that I type this, I am sure they will elect to go to yet another option.
