Lateral Power 5 coaching move

[twohourtour]

Can anyone give me examples of a Power 5 head coach that left for another power 5 HC position? Only ones I can think of are Willie Tagart from Oregon, Kiffin from Tennessee, Jimmy from Oklahoma State. Two were after 1 year and neither ended well and Jimmy left for a national champion. Could be more. Makes one think Fickell is more realistic and comparable to Frost leaving UCF.

Mullen, but that wasn’t lateral obviously.

And technically James Franklin moving from Vanderbilt to PSU, but I dont think that is really a lateral move - but it is power 5 to power 5

Jimbo

Wasn’t he more pushed out because of academic scandal?

Manny…went from Temple to Miami…

I think it was more him not getting along with some of the higher ups in the school for a variety of reasons, but I don't think he was pushed. I think he wanted out.

I think Tubbs went from Ole Miss to Auburn

Nah he was pushed out cause Candy was having too much fun and he kept asking for money..

Temple is not power 5

 

[UMercury21]

satan from LSU to Bama

 

[Cajuncane]

Temple is not power 5

Manny’s not a HC so I guess I was wrong on both ends..

Manny…went from Temple to Miami…

Nicely done

satan from LSU to Bama

Went to the Dolphins in between - pretty sure the OP is talking about a coach leaving one power and going directly to another. And not b/c they were fired or we could include Mark Richt

satan from LSU to Bama

He went to the NFL then to bama.

He never left a P5 team and went directly to another P5 team (unless we are counting the Jags as a college team)
