College Football: 5 coaches that should be on the hot seat after Week 12

Many careers are performance-driven. Typically, you go to work, do your job, clock out, go home, and do it all again the next day. Not in the college football coaching profession.

Few industries are met with such stern and swift actions for not performing. The formula in the coaching profession is simple: win, or you’re fired. Every year around the end of November or beginning of December, colleges and universities typically decide on whether or not to make the change in leadership atop their football programs.

Making the move this early will allow schools to find and hire their new coach quickly, in order to save time in the recruiting process, hiring new assistant coaches, installing new offensive and defensive systems, and much more.

Keep in mind that typically when a head coach is fired, that means everyone within the staff is fired along with them, which makes the process even that much more difficult.

While we never want to see anyone lose their job, here is a list of five head coaches who could potentially find themselves on the hot seat, for one reason or another.
