Couple coaches have come off the board. I'll continue to keep it updated as the NFL hiring cycle kicks into high gear in the coming weeks.
I like that you are including the new opportunities these coaches are getting as opposed to just deleting their names off of the list once they get a new job. On that note, I think maybe a few on your list were accidentally deleted. I no longer see Hal Mumme or Ben McAdoo. I was looking for McAdoo specifically because of his new job (although I’m still not sure it’s official yet). I’m almost certain I saw them on the list originally.
I don't THINK I had Mumme on the list originally. I MIGHT have had McAdoo - in fact, when Carolina hired him I went to edit that in and realized McAdoo wasn't in there - but if I did have him originally it was a mistake as he was employed in 2021 as an offensive consultant for the Cowboys, and I only wanted to include those not currently employed on the list (I realize some are "technically" employed on staffs that fired head coaches, but usually they go when the new coach is hired). So I may have deleted him when I realized he was working in Dallas.
I really thought I remember them both being on there but this certainly explains McAdoo being deleted.

Last week one of the NFL Insiders said that some of the vacancies could be filled this week.

Bowles and Leftwich season over. Leftwich 2nd interview in Jax. Arians already saying he may take over play calling duties in 2022 (with out saying why but its BL possibly going to Jags.) I don't think its a good job in Jax and not sure BL seasoned enough but its v possible.
Bowles on other hand cost TB a tie late in game and that may cost him a job per Boomer Esiason.
Also Buffalo assistance coaches were in the mix too.

FWIW, added a few more former college coaches to the list. As usual, if anyone has any other suggestions, let me know and I'll put them up there.

Keith Butler is on your list and he's retiring:

Some coaches retire and come back for a position that isn't as stressful or isn't as year-round (Bob Stoops, for example). So I wanted to include some who are "retiring" too.

Sure, if you want your USFL team to go 4-6 for three straight years.

So he's the best HC in Michigan!
He's a big name so give the USFL credit there.

He is the biggest name in the USFL. But he should never coach in the NFL again, because teams don't want to go 8-9 or 7-9-1 for 4 years in a row.
