Michigan promotes Boynton Jr. to full-time head coach, signaling continuity

Michigan promoted interim head coach Mike Boynton Jr. to a two-year, full-time deal after two seasons on the staff and his prior run as Oklahoma State’s head coach (2017-2024). With most players staying and only one (L.J. Cason) considering a departure, the roster remains intact as Michigan—coming off its first national championship since 1989—looks to sustain success; Boynton becomes the program’s sixth 21st-century head coach and the first promoted from within.

Coach Prime is back at full strength, guiding Colorado's revived quest

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders says he’s back to his best after recovering from bladder cancer surgery and a frail season last year. He overhauled the staff and roster, bringing in Brennan Marion to run the offense and elevating Chris Marve on defense, with a focus on players he recruited and a culture of strong communication. Sanders believes Colorado now has the personnel to succeed in the Big 12 and beyond, highlights quarterback Julian Lewis as a key piece if he plays more consistently, and says he’s focused on the present, embracing the opportunity to mentor a team in turnaround mode.

Iraola to spearhead Liverpool's next era on a two-year deal

The Spaniard will begin ahead of the 2026-27 season, with potential backroom staff additions from Bournemouth and recruitment led by sporting director Richard Hughes as the club rebuilds after a trophyless 2025-26 campaign.

Liverpool parts ways with Slot, Iraola linked as ideal successor

Liverpool confirmed Arne Slot will depart as head coach with immediate effect after an end-of-season review, with Andoni Iraola emerging as the leading candidate to replace him. Slot leaves after delivering a Premier League title but a disappointing second season, while Iraola—who steered Bournemouth to European qualification—is seen as a fit to revive Liverpool’s attacking, high-pressing style. The club praised Slot's leadership and said a different approach is needed to move forward, and the move would reunite Iraola with sporting director Richard Hughes.
