The 2023-24 coaching carousel could be a wild ride for the FBS programs in Texas with a legitimate possibility that seven of the 13 jobs could turnover in a cycle kickstarted by Texas A&M’s decision to boot Jimbo Fisher 10 games into his sixth season in charge.
The longest-tenured FBS coach in Texas is Sam Houston’s K.C. Keeler in his ninth season, but his first at this level. Take him away, and the 11 remaining FBS head coaches in Texas are, in average, 3.27 years into the job. Mike Bloomgren (Rice) and Dana Dimel (UTEP) are in their sixth seasons. Dana Holgorsen is in his fifth. Dave Aranda and Jeff Traylor are nearly four seasons in, and the rest of the bunch is on year three or fewer.
