Welcome back to another installment of the Coaching Changes Board...

where we will track the numerous coaching vacancies that will surface over the next several weeks.

This board will be used for analyzing candidates, tracking flights, and letting you where Terri Saban is looking for real estate.

This will be our 8th installment of the world famous Coaching Changes Board. This board was born back in November of 2007, when a crap load of schools were looking for new coaches, including Michigan and Nebraska. belowpar was the star of the board, telling us that Miles was staying when everyone and Herbstreit were telling us otherwise.

It laid dormant for 11 months in 2008, until the debacle known as Malveto forced Miles to undergo a search for a new DC and other defensive coaching positions.

We told it goodbye for the second time in January of 2009. It came back in November of 2009 when the prevailing thought was that Gary Crowton would be replaced, but that never happened.

In 2010, Michigan was again looking for a replacement, and Les Miles was again a potential candidate. Other big schools making changes included Florida, Stanford and Miami.

The year 2011 saw Joe Paterno get canned, Urban Meyer's heart healed enough for him to coach again, and A&M hired Sumlin.

In 2012, we saw Oregon, Auburn, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky and a host of other BCS schools hire new coaches.

Last season, we saw Saban flirt with the Longhorns before they eventually settled on Charlie Strong.

This year, Florida, Kansas and SMU have openings and Michigan may soon open up too, which could send a ripple effect throughout college football. It should be fun.

We have locked all of the old threads to preserve them for years to come. We hope you enjoy your time on the board.
