These coaches are currently looking for a coaching position. Whether they were fired, forced to resign, or they just are looking for a better opportunity elsewhere, these are some of the best available coaches currently without a job. Finding a coach that fits a teams philosophy and needs is a very difficult decision and one that should be done with due diligence. It is never easy to predict the success and failures of head football coaches in NCAA Football. Part of the reason we created the True Hiring Score (THS) was to get a better grip on where each coach ranks in terms of their likelihood to win a National Championship, improve a teams record, and their recruiting successes.

There is often turnover in College Football coaching and our goal is to make sense of it all. Are most of the coaches on this page capable of running a college football team? Yes. Will all of them get another shot at coaching a football team? No. Coaching is all about finding the right situation at the right time. This is why our THS rating incorporates all of these factors and gives a baseline rating for all of the coaches on Coaching Tree Hot Seat.
