Official 2016 Coaching Carousel

Post-Christmas reset

Things look to be pretty set, unless some post Jan.1 movement happens.

Open jobs:


1. UConn- Going to axe Bob Diaco (h/t to mdelpizzo, in the post immediately above).


Jobs filled:

1. Fresno- Jeff Tedford gets the job, mid-season. Good hire, but the timing is weird. Of note, D II Danny applied and interviewed for the gig, according to the Fresno Bee.
2. FIU- Butch Davis takes the FIU gig. 5 year deal and all the Banana Boat products he wants. HaLk is the OC, [insert laugh track here], until he took his rodeo back to DII, where he belongs.
3. LSU- Ed Orgeron takes the job when Herman's price was apparently to high. Jimbo stays at FSU.
4. UT- Herman to UT. Strong's firing wasn't even out of the AD's mouth before Herman was emptying HCCS' desk...looks like this was in the works for a while. UT apparently talked to Jimbo, Dabo and John Harbaugh. Todd Orlando to be DC, still awaiting word on Dawn.
5. Indiana- Kevin Wilson out, Tom Allen promoted and hired, pretty much all in one day. (h/t unionbuff on the firing, buffnik on the hire)
6. Purdue- Jeff Brohm from WKU gets the nod.
7. Baylor- Matt Rhule now presides over the baptist dumpster fire.
8. Oregon- Willie Taggart goes from USF to the land of swooshes and cash, lures away Jim Leavitt with promises of eternal youth and a Play Doh fuzzy pumper barber set. Fires CFB's longest tenured AC, RB coach Campbell.
9. Nevada- Jay Norvell, fmr. ASU WR coach now the head of the Wolfpack.
10. UH- Major Applewhite assumes control of Houston High's FB program.
11. San Jose St.- Brent Brennan, fmr. WR coach at Oregon St. takes over.
12. Cincinnati- Tommy Tuberville resigns. Meanwhile, Mike Bohn calls Chuck.....Luke not-so Fickell, former tOSU DC gets the gig, after all he was just up the road.
13. Florida Atl. U- fired Charlie Partridge, and goes full rogue, hiring Lane Kiffin aka Joey Freshwater, with Kendal Briles coming along for for moral support.
14. Western Kentucky- Brohm to Purdue, Mike Sanford takes over.
15. Temple- Rhule leaves, UF DC Geoff Collins jumps off the Sparkles express to take over Temple.
16. USF- Taggart heads North, by Northwest. Charles Strong is the new HC.


Secondary openings:

None that I know of.



Other news: Doeren safe at NCST with the win over UNC.
DII Danny takes the reins at UC-Davis, Cha'pelle Brown (remember him?) goes from No.AZ. to UC-Davis to be Hawk's DB coach. HaLkins twitter remains, irregular.
MikMac staying put, and hanging up on anyone who suggests otherwise..

Bob Diaco fired at UCONN.

Giving their timing UCONN really put themselves behind in finding a solid replacement.

Diaco would make a solid DC.

I thought that Diaco was the best DC in the country when he was at Notre Dame. The reason they were in the national championship game after the 2012 season. Runs a 3-4 that he learned at Virginia under Groh (who was a Parcells/Belichick disciple). New leader on my DC wish list.
 
Not trying to be a dick, but 90% of the threads you start in the pub could be avoided with a 30 second Google search. The other 10% probably more appropriate for your therapist.

Odd. My therapist says 90% of my issues are best dealt with on Allbuffs.
 
I might be beating a dead horse here, but Sumlin is 24-15 (11-13 SEC) since he signed his extension and Manziel walked off campus.
