We Predicted The Next College Football Coaches To Get Fired | Presented by FanDuel
About this episode
The episode discusses which college football coaches are at risk of being fired heading into the 2026 season.
Which college football coaches are REALLY on the hot seat heading into the 2026 season? Brad Powers and Joey Knish break down the coaches they believe may not survive the year at their current schools, including Bill Belichick at North Carolina, Deion Sanders at Colorado, Dabo Swinney at Clemson, Shane Beamer at South Carolina, Mike Locksley at Maryland and more. The crew debates whether Bill Belichick will still be coaching at North Carolina in 2027, if Deion Sanders missed his chance to leave Colorado, and whether Dabo Swinney can still compete in the modern era of college football. They also discuss which programs are falling behind financially, the toughest jobs in college football, and which coaches are under the most pressure heading into the season. Will Bill Belichick succeed at North Carolina? Can Deion Sanders keep Colorado relevant without Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders? Is Clemson heading toward a major fall under Dabo Swinney? Let us know in the comments which college football coach you think is under the most pressure this season. 🔵 New to FanDuel Sportsbook? New customers can bet 5 & get 150 if your bet wins.
