New list says Scott Frost on one of the hottest seats in football

How does Frost’s hot seat compare to the rest of college football?

Another day, another list putting Scott Frost on the hot seat, but just how hot is that seat compared to the other hot seat coaches in college football. CBS Sports has released its annual Hot Seat Rankings, and the numbers don’t lie. Released every year since 2016, the list has placed 35 different coaches on the hottest of seats, and of those 35 coaches, 23 have been fired.

Coaching changes happen every year. In just the last three years, 67 schools have hired a new head football coach. That’s 51% of Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly knowns as Division I) teams that have made a change on the sideline in the last three seasons. Last season alone saw 30 programs make a head coaching change, and the current turnover rate doesn’t show any signs of slowing down. In fact, we already have a coaching change for 2022 as UAB coach Bill Clark, unfortunately, had to resign on June 24th due to a deteriorating back condition.

We know the seat under Scott Frost is red hot right now, but where does he stack up against his fellow hot-seat coaches? Scroll below and see. I don’t think you’ll be surprised.
