Dusty May Sparks Michigan’s Meteoric Rise to the Final Four

Dusty May’s move to Michigan after FAU’s Final Four run has ignited a rapid ascent for the Wolverines, taking them from 8 wins to a Final Four in two years through portal additions and a culture-driven approach that won over players and ADs alike. A 95–62 win over Tennessee sealed the berth, illustrating Michigan’s transformation and cementing May as a top figure amid ongoing coaching-market interest—while the program pledges to keep him long-term with continued top‑tier support.

Gutekunst Explains Bisaccia Departure as Packers Begin Special Teams Search

Green Bay GM Brian Gutekunst said Rich Bisaccia left for other opportunities rather than retirement, giving the Packers time to thoroughly evaluate candidates as Matt LaFleur searches for a new special teams coordinator. The team has struggled to finish in the top half of the league in special teams and is weighing roster implications (including potential returner and kicker roles) while LaFleur interviews candidates such as Tom McMahon, Cameron Achord, Kyle Wilber, Devin Fitzsimmons, Matthew Smiley, and Sam Sewell. The decision comes amid the NFL coaching carousel, with the Packers aiming to stabilize a unit that finished 23rd in kickoff return and last in punt return, and with Brandon McManus and Lucas Havrisik in play for the kicker spot.

Coaching Carousel Heats Up: High-Major Jobs to Watch This Offseason

With the regular season ending, the men’s college basketball coaching carousel is heating up as high-major programs assess changes. Kansas State’s early move has set the tone, but most moves are expected at mid- or bottom-tier high-major jobs rather than the sport’s top gigs. Sports Illustrated lists hot seats (Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Providence, Boston College, Arizona State, LSU, Cincinnati, Oklahoma, Georgia Tech, Ohio State, Wake Forest, Memphis), coaches likely to stick (Georgetown, North Carolina, South Carolina, Rutgers, Notre Dame), and retirement-watch candidates (Altman, Barnes, Boyle, Few, Grant, Izzo, McDermott, Self). It also notes open jobs (Kansas State, San Diego, Air Force, Tarleton State, Cal State Bakersfield, North Florida) and other watch cases like Jake Diebler, Steve Forbes, Penny Hardaway, and Thad Matta as the cycle unfolds.

NFL Coaching Carousel Slows on Diversity as Numbers Dip

Albert Breer argues the NFL’s diversity push has stalled: the league’s share of minority and Black head coaches has fallen markedly from 2024 to 2025, and the scrapping of the Accelerator program coincides with a drop in minority hires. The piece analyzes why the remaining Black and minority coaches have defensive backgrounds, notes the small number of Black offensive coordinators, and surveys upcoming openings and candidate possibilities, warning that DEI momentum may be a major topic into the next cycle.

Ravens and Falcons Lead the 2026 NFL Coaching Grades in a Chaotic Carousel

Sports Illustrated writer Conor Orr grades all 10 NFL head-coaching hires for 2026 amid a chaotic carousel, crowning Baltimore’s Jesse Minter as the top pick and giving high marks to Atlanta’s Stefanski and Tennessee’s Saleh, with mid-range assessments for the Raiders’ Klint Kubiak and Bills’ Joe Brady. He places Giants’ John Harbaugh, Steelers’ Mike McCarthy and Browns’ Todd Monken in the middle to lower tiers, and assigns middling to poor grades to Dolphins’ Jeff Hafley and Cardinals’ Mike LaFleur, underscoring how roster fit, front-office dynamics, and quarterback relationships shape each hire.

Harbaugh at the center as NFL coaching carousel gets graded

The New York Post’s Ryan Dunleavy grades the NFL’s 10 offseason head-coach hires, noting the 2022 class was notorious for quick firings and arguing that this year’s group may not fare much better. The piece highlights teams like the Giants, Dolphins and Raiders as repeat participants from 2022 to 2026 and discusses where John Harbaugh’s name fits into the Giants’ potential move. It ranks each team’s decision and points out that even well-known hires (e.g., Stefanski to Atlanta, McCarthy to Pittsburgh, Saleh in Tennessee) face skepticism, given the poor recent track record of coaching changes.

Bills promote Joe Brady to head coach, but history cautions internal hires

The Buffalo Bills elevated offensive coordinator Joe Brady to head coach, replacing Sean McDermott. The piece argues that, since 2000, very few internally promoted head coaches have presided over winning teams, citing examples like Todd Bowles, Jason Garrett, Mike Martz, and others, suggesting Brady faces a challenging dynamic despite the Bills’ decision.
