When’s the last time your team lost a coach to another NCAA team?

I think for LSU it was Paul Dietzel in 1962.

Gotta be Holtz, I think.

edit, wait, no that was to the NFL.

After reviewing, it would be Bowden Wyatt in 1955 who went to his Alma Mater in Hillljack Land.

Does Saban count? Or the Dolphins stint nullified that.

Which team has lost not one but two head coaches to other teams not only within the same conference, but within the same division (or would be same if we still had those).

For Auburn, 1933, had to Wikipedia that one. So I guess that's accurate.

I forgot that Houston Nutt technically resigned for other reasons before taking the Ole Miss job. I guess he retired, then decided a day later he wanted to coach again.

Kinda crazy for Bama to have 2 that recently. Just shows the pressure that comes with that job.

nah we fired Hootie. His on the field probably didn't warrant it, but he was such a toxic little goober

James Franklin 2013 to Penn State. Usually our coaches fail and get canned. Last basketball coach was Eddie Fogler to South Carolina in 93 after a season much like the one we’re having this year.
