Ferentz dean of B1G coaches

[AIRHAWK]

Was wondering how many different head coaches have come and gone in the B1G since Kirk arrived in the league?
25?-30? more?
Go hawks

 

[BleednGumsMrphy]

curious does the "dean" do anything Big ten related? or is it just a title given to the most tenured coach

He might end up being the dean of all D-1 coaches if Richts and Stoops get run out of town.

Initially, I was impressed that you could rattle off all those names off the top of your head like that........Then I tried it and it really wasn't that difficult. Ummm, so yeah, there have been a lot of coaches.

Michigan State also had John L Smith and someone else between Saban and Dantonio

Indiana had Gerry Dinardo, Terry Hoepner, some other guy and now Kevin Wilson. Who was before Dinardo?

unfortunately for Walker while he was head coach at N'western, he died of a heart attach while he was still head coach there.

Beamer is the national dean IIRC. But how much longer will he be around?

Completely forgot about Beamer.......Isn't Bud Foster(DC?) a coach in waiting?

"some other guy" was Bill Lynch, who took over when Hoepner got sick

 

[shonblatt]

Counting interim coaches, by my math there have been 34 coaching changes in the Big Ten since Kirk was hired.

Yes, the gum throwing Bill Lynch, who kept yellin "oh bull shite" when video reviews kept going against IU in that Halloween Tyler Sash game back in 09.

 

[EstronHawkKing]

against N'western, Kirk should wear a black/gold sweatshirt that should just say "DEAN" on the front, like Belushi's "COLLEGE."

Most of the Hokie fan base want RichRod to be their next HC.

Completely forgot about Lynch. He was so hacked off that game I loved it.
Seems I remember a game or two when Lllloyd Caaar was also not a happy guy at Kinnick.
