The Daily Collegian has seven potential coaches for UMass football.

THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS
If you missed it, there was a total snafu about the new UMass-UConn trophy after Saturday's game.
The screwup over the trophy is fairly mind-boggling. It's a nice trophy. UMass and UConn have been playing since 1897. There should be a trophy for the game. Why can't we do anything without messing it up?

Neal Brown was fired at West Virginia. Hopefully the athletic department's speed dial is working. We might not be able to afford him though.
The News Sentinel says Brown was put into a tough situation.

I'm impressed with Shane Montgomery. He's an veteran coach. He's coached and recruited in the MAC. When he finally got a healthy QB (s) with Ahmad Haston and AJ Hairston, he averaged 29.25 points/game against two SEC teams and two 8-3 Group-of-Five teams. That's the best four game stretch of offensive production for the Minutemen since Mark Whipple in 2018. And that's a long, long time.
If he's not in contention as head coach, maybe he'd could be retained as OC..
