It’s time to set up the coaching carousel! P4 head coaching jobs will probably be very sparse this year, as athletic departments will be on the hook to pay players and are apparently no longer willing to pay the monstrous buyouts that many of their coaches have. But there may still be plenty of action in the Group of 5 (and among coordinators). Here’s the current list of FBS HC moves (I’ll update it as it spins along):
- Ball State:
Mike Neureplaced by OPEN - Central Michigan: Jim McElwain (retiring at end of season)
- Charlotte:
Biff Poggireplaced by OPEN - East Carolina:
Mike Houstonreplaced by OPEN - FAU:
Tom Hermanreplaced by OPEN - Fresno State:
Jeff Tedfordreplaced by OPEN - Kennesaw State:
Brian Bohannonreplaced by OPEN - Rice:
Mike Bloomgrenreplaced by OPEN - Southern Miss:
Will Hallreplaced by OPEN - Temple:
Stan Draytonreplaced by OPEN - Tulsa:
Kevin Wilsonreplaced by OPEN - UMass:
Don Brownreplaced by OPEN - Utah State:
Blake Andersonreplaced by OPEN
Other notes: A lot of “hot seats” (e.g. Arkansas, Baylor, Florida, West Virginia) probably cooled off by winning enough games. Mack Brown at UNC claims he’s not retiring. Deion Sanders at CU claims he does not intend to go to the NFL.

Is Lincoln Riley sitting on a heating pad? I feel like he should be, but at the same time I just feel so much indifference from west coast schools these days. Like even Oregon seems to be j chillin. But the original point stands, Lincoln Riley has been underperforming since his arrival and USC seems deflated.
