Coaches of teams participating in the 12-team field won’t be available until after the first round at least, which comes after early signing day the first week of December.

But that won’t stop athletics directors from making mid-season changes in an attempt to get a leg up in the coaching market. With that in mind, here’s every coach who has retired, resigned or been fired so far in 2024.
