I think I'm right on this.....

With Edsell moving on to Maryland, I think we're down to 3 BCS football coaches still at the same school they were at in 1999......Joe Paterno, Bob Stoops and Kirk Ferentz.

Mack Brown, off the top of my head...

What about Virginia Tech's coach? He has been around a while.

Technically Bill Snyder at K-State.

I think you're wrong on this. Coach beamer been at Va Tech 24 years. 2nd longest tenured coach behind JoPa. and yes, Mac Brown at Texas.

Good call, I forgot about Beamer.

So then it's 5:

Ferentz
Stoops
JoePa
Beamer
Mack Brown
(Snyder doesn't count because there was a break)

That's an amazing amount of turnover in 12 years.

Makes you wanna be a college coach doesn't it? Job security!!! Good post, never thought about it much. No wonder recruiting is so screwed up.

Frank Beamer has been at Va Tech since the mid 80's.
Bill Snyder was with K.State for a while before he quit and then came back a few years ago.
Mack Brown has been at Texas since 98. In addition to the ones that were mentioned before that's it.

And no wonder they demand so much money. CFB HC jobs aren't recycled at nearly the rate of NFL HC jobs. If you're minimally competent in the NFL you can string out at least 3 or 4 HC gigs before you become totally radioactive.
