Currently 13 openings in FBS. May be a few more that happen after the season ends. Figure about half will involve schools hiring sitting head coaches so we're talking about 20 HC changes at a minimum.

Current Openings: USC; Miami; Virginia Tech; South Carolina; Missouri; Maryland; UCF; Illinois; Syracuse; Iowa State; North Texas; Hawaii; Louisian-Monroe

Potential openings due to coach being fired:  Virginia; Purdue; Rutgers; Georgia; LSU

UCF and USF are very much the same type of job.  Big markets, in Florida, large enrollments, schools committed to athletics. A dumpster fire they are, but they are also recent BCS bowl level and conference champs.  We are up, they are down (way down).  Of course, either school is a desirable job for a coach that wants to get to the power five...there in lays the problem.

I think he still  has love for USF deep down and couldn't take that job if offered (I doubt ucf wants him anyways). I think he's going to Kansas State or staying on at Colorado 

I am a Leavitt fan and can tell you first-hand, he is a complete control freak.  The man will pretty much take the first FBS head coaching job that offers him unless he's generating interest from multiple schools.  UCF or whatever else, he wants control of his own program.

I don't disagree with both of your statements, and the control freak part is fact, not conjecture.

Colorado is terrible and it's probably really hard to recruit there.

He'd have much better options to run his style of football in FL. I wouldn't want him coaching in the American.

He's old now to be UCF coach with a young AD and also, his skull is too weak for the helmet headbutting.

I would rather see him at Miami than something something something to the east. Not saying it is probable but if given the 2..
