’s 2020-21 coaching carousel featured 16 changes, including moves at Texas, Kansas, Auburn, UCF, South Carolina and Illinois. With the carousel completed and all 16 jobs filled, it's time to rank and grade the new hires and see how they fit with their new programs. At the top, it's a close call between the hires of Steve Sarkisian (Texas), Clark Lea (Vanderbilt), Lance Leipold (Kansas), Bryan Harsin (Auburn) and Gus Malzahn (UCF) for the top spot. But the next tier features another good group of hires, including Bret Bielema's return to the sidelines and Will Hall at Southern Miss.
