2016 Coaching Carousel Begins...

Holgersen is nonsense, ain't happening unless there's some kind of serious rift between him and WVU administration. I know nothing about Dykes so I won't comment but Babers might make the move if he feels UH is a better stepping stone to a top-tier P5 job. But is going 4-8/5-7 at Syracuse anything to get excited about? He had two good seasons at Bowling Green but nothing groundbreaking. Not sure what UH would be seeing there.

... Or playing surrogate for an coach's agent. Leverage (real or perceived) is why salaries have escalated and why you end up w/ $5m buyouts,

This guy is a beat writer from the Houston Chronicle. If he's a surrogate for a coach's agent then that confirms he's a hack.

Shocked you don't here more about Kiffin getting another shot somewhere.
I know he bailed on TN and didn't get it done at USC ( don't remember what exactly happened there aside from not winning with recruiting restrictions if memory serves).

Seems to me he must have done more that what we have heard about considering what he is doing at high profile Alabama.

I have this feeling Sarkisian will get another HC job before Kiffin

Kiffin has a great gig. He ain't leaving unless a top team comes knocking.

Houston offensive line coach Derek Warehime will join Tom Herman's staff at Texas
Expand ...

Additionally - Houston defensive line / assistant head coach Oscar Giles, tight ends / fullbacks coach Corby Meekins, cornerbacks coach / special teams coordinator Jason Washington and recruiting director Derek Chang will join Tom Herman at Texas, according to ESPN and 247Sports. The three coaches spent two years at UH, while Chang spent one year and previously worked at the Longhorn Network.

To be expected - the back fill @ Houston will be interesting to watch once they settle on coach.

Did you miss the part where it said "four years at Nevada"?

They're basically doing what UConn will do in 365 days.

Ed Orgeron "blew away" #LSU decision-makers in a meeting Friday. He brought with him a massive binder detailing long-term plans.

Ross Dellenger ‏@RossDellenger 1h1 hour ago
#LSU will nail down and finalize Orgeron's contract this AM (expected around $3M/year) He will go after Lane Kiffin for his OC position.

Ross Dellenger ‏@RossDellenger 1h1 hour ago
Reports by @ChipBrownHD on Thursday were accurate, source confirms. #LSU was deep in talks w/Herman & school believes his camp leaked story.

Ross Dellenger ‏@RossDellenger 30m30 minutes ago
#LSU leaders broke off communication at 5 a.m. w/Herman & his agent after they revealed their #Texas intentions.

Ed Orgeron to be named LSU's next head coach, sources say
Expand ...

Strong move by LSU/Coach to lock him down before Herman made play to grab him (previous relationship):

Locking him down: LSU defensive coordinator Dave Aranda agrees to new contract, associate head coach title, sources say

Nice insight into search (and cautionary tale about back channel nature of business): How wild Thanksgiving night transformed LSU coaching search, led to Ed Orgeron's promotion

USAT: Where we stand on coaching hiring and firings

An interesting point from that article on a reason why Diaco is coming back - there's an unusually low amount of movement going on right now. Sure, there's some coordinators available around, but with almost no significant movement going on, there's very few candidates available to fill jobs. UH still has a move to make and if they somehow land one of the names that's been thrown out (Holgersen wtf) that could set off a few dominos. Kelly could still leave ND and that would undoubtedly set off a wave of movement, but there's not a lot of shift going on. How much that played into UConn's decision, probably not a lot, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't a contributing factor.
