College football coaching moves: Names to keep an eye on

The coaching carousel always offers a surprise or two, but this year, it's increasingly likely the supply of good candidates far outweighs the demand for them.

After 11 weeks, Florida State is the only open Tier 1 job, and USC is the only other expected to open (via firing, at least). No movement is expected in the Big 12. Rutgers could be the only Big Ten vacancy, and the ACC should be quiet other than FSU. The SEC will have at least one coaching vacancy in Arkansas, but the real shakeup likely won't be until 2020.

Still, the smart fans want to know who are the hot names on lists for athletic directors, search firms and university presidents.
