List of college football head coaches with non-consecutive tenure
This is a list of college football head coaches with non-consecutive tenure, meaning that an individual was a head coach at a college or university for a period, departed, and then returned to the same college or university in the same capacity.
This list includes only head coaches. This list does not include head coaches whose break in tenure was due to a temporarily suspended football program for World War I (including the flu pandemic linked to that conflict) or World War II and with no other coach during the break in tenure. It also does not include coaches that left and returned into an administrative capacity in the title of "head coach" but did not coach any games, such as when Tom Osborne temporarily named himself head coach while athletic director for the Nebraska Cornhuskers until Bo Pelini was hired in 2007.[1]
Several College Football Hall of Fame coaches have made the list, accenting not only their return to the same program but the success their return brought to the program.[2] Critics have pointed out that returning coaches appear to be less successful at producing winning teams and programs during their second tenure[3] and make comparisons to previous records of coaches attempting to return to a prior coaching job.[4]
