The dust has settled on the top end of the college football head coaching carousel.

The Broncos have made it to the Mountain West championship game for the second straight year after a midseason coaching change, but this time it was to head coach Andy Avalos rather than a coordinator.

Other names include Bronco Mendenhall, Matt Wells and Texas assistant coach Jeff Choate.
