The college coaching hierarchy has changed quite a bit in the past year. Baylor’s Art Briles, universally regarded as one of the sport’s top coaches, is out. Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh is in. Houston’s Tom Herman went seemingly overnight from national championship offensive coordinator to heralded head coach. Steve Spurrier went from South Carolina’s savior to self-fired retiree.
