As the Coaching Carousel Turns: 2018 Vol. 4 UPDATE

The last few moments have been quite busy on the Carousel, as two jobs have suddenly been filled.

Texas State
As I mentioned when posting Vol. 4 moments ago, Jake Spavital was a candidate at Texas State, and he has now accepted the job. The announcement will likely be made official this afternoon with a press conference to follow tomorrow.

Charlotte
One of the hottest names in coaching circles over the last 2 seasons has found a new home. James Madison coach Mike Houston is the new football coach at Charlotte, landing the spot over 5 other candidates that were being considered at any given time. He should be a solid fit at Charlotte, and will have strong recruiting ties in the area after time at JMU and at The Citadel prior.
