I don't know if O'Brien will be our next head coach but the notion that guys with aspirations of being a head coach in the NFL will limit themselves to their backyard is a head scratcher to say the least. There are only 32 NFL head coaching jobs and only about a half dozen open up in a given year. If someone has eyes on being an NFL coach, they aren't going to wait 10 years for one to open up in their home state. Trends in coaching are too fickle and a guy's sell-by date passes way to soon for such luxuries.
In my 30+ years of watching the NFL, I've never heard of that happening, ever. Unless you have some quote from him saying as much, I don't see O'Brien being the first.
