15 head coaches enter their first full seasons with their respective programs this season
In 2024, 29 FBS programs begin the season with a new head coach. 15 are within the Group of Five. Rebuilding a roster is hard enough, but several programs are in for a complete rebuild under the direction of a new leader.This week, G5 Football Daily managing editor Joe Londergan and staff writer Kevin Barral are joined by Eric Henry of 247Sports and Horns247 as they give their thoughts on the G5 coaches whose respective first years at the helm could/should provide the most intrigue.
Placing Spencer Danielson last isn’t because it’s a bad hire, but because I think we know more or less what to expect from Boise State. After taking over mid-way through the season, the Broncos ended up winning thetitle. On top of winning it all, they brought in USC transfer and former five-star quarterback Malachi Nelson. Along with Nelson, they beefed up the offensive line and brought in a tight end. The Broncos are right away the early favorites to win the Mountain West title.
Derek Mason is a good football coach who took one of the toughest jobs in the nation at Vanderbilt. Him having ties to the region is a great start, but I’m interested to see what the expectations are. Spencer Danielson is another name who did a good job as the interim coach last season and now is putting his stamp on the Boise program. He’ll need to come out of the gate with a strong season.
