What if there was a two-week window, immediately at the end of each conference's respective season, where the only firing and hiring could happen at that time?
Should the NCAA consider a signing period for college coaches? How might this impact the landscape for college programs?
I think about how these AD's hire/fire coaches before the end of the season and how it affects the players that are, for a lack of a better phrase, "collateral damage."
I look at how Texas and LSU had to jockey for Herman, and LSU said they "weren't going to be held hostage" by Herman. I also look at PJ Fleck who is waiting until his conference championship to talk to any teams. I respect his integrity and focus he has toward his team, but does that hurt his chances on the "coaching carousel?"
Maybe this is too far fetched. I'm sure I'm missing something. Just thought it would be an interesting discussion.

I think that schools should not be aloud to hire coaches until after the bowl season.

I agree, I think Houston lost to Memphis because kids did not know who their HC was even going to be as they heard the rumors of Herman. Puts kids in a very difficult situation. Though any coach can not fault Herman for his continual progression.

Telling colleges-universities whom they can hire or when does not fall under the purview of NCAA.

Telling colleges-universities whom they can hire or when does not fall under the purview of NCAA. I had to look up purview (control, range). Got it Coach.
Could the NCAA gain control of such a task, or is that a legal battle that no one wants?
Honestly, I'm not a fan of the NCAA regulating anything, in general, but there seems like there should be a better solution to protect the interests and well-being of the players.
I appreciate any thoughts Coach.

The governing body gets its powers from member institutions - the very ones you want to have them tell when they can hire somebody or not.
Don't see the schools ceding that discretion to the NCAA.

That would be collusion. It's very very very against the law.

I think that schools should not be aloud to hire coaches until after the bowl season. That's less than a month before signing day.

Moving signing day to march? That's the opposite of good for players

I also look at PJ Fleck who is waiting until his conference championship to talk to any teams. I respect his integrity and focus he has toward his team, but does that hurt his chances on the "coaching carousel?"
Fleck may not talk to other schools until after Friday, but his AGENT sure could be-have been.
If someone is interested enough in him, they'll wait.
The two-week recruiting contact period just started this past Monday.

What happens when your coach wrecks his Harley with a 25 year old mistress on the back in the middle of April. Do you have to wait til December to can him?

When a coach says, 'I haven't talked to BIG STATE University or anyone else. I'm focused on this team and this upcoming game.' Technically, he's probably telling the truth.
I think any agent worth his salt is doing his best to help his client. That includes speaking for him behind the scenes, so he doesn't have to speak in public.
Good point, Coach.
