Ranking the top 10 college football coaching hires
4. Jeff Lebby, Mississippi State
Lebby has been viewed as one of the rising offensive coaches in college football for a while and now the 40-year-old gets his first crack at a head coaching gig. He has spent the past two years as the offensive coordinator at Oklahoma and was at Ole Miss the two years prior to that. Lebby had the chance to learn under Lane Kiffin, Josh Heupel and Art Briles, giving him an impressive mentor list. The game of college football has transitioned more to the offensive side of the ball in recent years and Lebby gives the Bulldogs the ceiling to keep up.
