North Texas After back-to-back nine-win seasons, North Texas is 14–21 in the past three seasons. Seth Littrell, whose contract runs through the end of 2023, has undoubtedly raised the profile of the program. UNT is a G5 program willing to pay—Littrell’s salary is between $1.3 million and $1.8 million. Its location near the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex also makes it attractive for up-and-coming coaches. Some sources say Litrell missed his window by not selling high and making a jump to the Power 5 after his initial success. read more: https://www.si.com/college/2022/08/19/ncaa-football-hot-seat-coaches-harsin-frost

On Thursday, University of Alabama at Birmingham head coach Bill Clark told AL.com that he has decided against coaching elsewhere during the 2015 season because he sees "a glimmer of hope" that the program could be restored. UAB's football program was shut down in December amid financial concerns. In 2014, Clark led the Blazers to a 6-6 record, their best mark since 2004 (7-5). UAB announced earlier this month that a task force would be formed to review a financial report that led to the elimination of the football, bowling and rifle programs. Clark, who said he has been contacted about other coaching positions, laid out the two main reasons he has elected not to coach next fall.

Last week, Rice University picked up a valuable quarterback recruit by sending a letter… to his cat. The letter, sent to Kitty Granato, read “As you know we’re trying to convince J.T. Rice is the place for him. I know you’d like to keep him close so he can feed you and change the litter box.” Ridiculous? Yes. Absurd? Undoubtedly. Is it the boldest tactic we’ve ever seen? Well, I don’t know about that. Below is a brief collection of some of the most absurd college football recruiting tactics that coaches have recently attempted. As you’ll see, they range from the lavish, to the bizarre, to the downright Pelini. read more: http://extramustard.si.com/2014/05/19/11-college-football-recruiting-tactics-stories-methods/

Keep an eye on: Illinois. Fighting Illini administrators pondered pulling the plug on Tim Beckman last year, even discreetly making calls to see if coaches had any interest. Now, Illinois is struggling both on the field and the recruiting trail, and Saturday's ESPN broadcast of a 60-35 loss to Ohio State cast negativity on Beckman's future. A winless Big Ten season may force the program to make a move. However, Illinois may be worried that difficult admissions standards make the job unattractive. If the position becomes open, Michigan State defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi would get a long look. He's one of the country's most coveted assistants, and he already has Big Ten experience. (Amazing statistic working against him: 27 of the 32 head-coaching jobs that turned over last year went to candidates with offensive backgrounds.) Ohio State offensive coordinator Tom Herman could give the Illini an identity. If he moved the ball as the offensive coordinator at Iowa State, he could likely find similar success in Champaign. Perhaps North Dakota State's Craig Bohl would also be in the mix. Illinois hired the hot MAC coach last time, so it could pursue a similar strategy. Dan McCarney's strong season at North Texas, coupled with his Big Ten experience from Wisconsin, could also give him a shot. As for a dark horse, FCS Eastern Illinois' Dino Babers has flourished with a Baylor-like offense.

“Small colleges are becoming the minor leagues for the big schools,” says Sonny Vaccaro, a longtime sneaker company executive who has been involved with college basketball for decades. “The small schools are being penalized for their success recruiting and developing players.” http://www.si.com/college-basketball/201...tournament
