With coaching carousel chatter heating up across college football, one of the sport’s fastest-rising names has again found himself in the center of national attention. Rumors surfaced Wednesday that the Arkansas Razorbacks are favorites to hire South Florida head coach Alex Golesh, prompting swift reaction from Bulls leadership as speculation continued to swirl.
While no official confirmation has emerged linking Golesh directly to the Arkansas opening, his rapid ascent has made him one of the hottest names among available coaching candidates. Over three seasons at USF, he has engineered a remarkable turnaround, posting a 22–15 record, including an 8–3 mark this season with a potential nine-win year still in reach.
