The addition of a 10th full-time assistant coach in FBS will be a massive change in the college coaching world, but a new amendment could push it back a season.

According to an NCAA report released today, there is an amendment to move the effective date of the 10th assistant coach from April (immediate upon vote) to Jan. 9, 2018. The Football Oversight Committee is the source of the amendment, and another form lists the Mid-American Conference.

The rationale is related to timing in the calendar, the budget and the job market.

“There are many concerns with the timing of the current immediate effective date,” the amendment reads. “An April effective date is in the middle of the budget year for the membership and is late in the hiring period for a football staff.

I'm not sure if this helps or hurts Pitt. The biggest schools already have those guys as "Analysts" budgeted and ready to go and just a matter of promoting one to the 10th on field/on the road spot.

I suspect it about the drop in CABLE SUBSCRIBERS from 100-84 Million, the Cash Cow is like Joseph interpreting Pharaoh's Dream, Seven Years of FAT CASH COWS and now finding out Seven Years of requiring some Leaner Years.

CFB Staffs have been growing in may Quality Control Coaching Positions, Recruiting Staffing, and even OC, DC, Assistants Coaches are given Personal Assistants to do anything they need. CFB Athletic Departments are turning to General Mangers not the Athletic Directors.

Jpripper88 is spot on when you read the entire Article at the Link.

ARTICLE & EXCERPT:
Inside College Football: 'General managers' now more prevalent at major programs
Coaches still run the show, but off-field staffers are growing more important and powerful by the year:
Matt Dudek wants to be an NFL general manager one day. Why, then, put up with the pretense of his title at Arizona -- director of on-campus recruiting and player personnel? "I joked about it, like, four years ago in the staff room," Dudek recalled. "'Coach, if you want to make me a GM, that's great.' Everybody laughed." Not anymore. In an age when college football staff sizes are exploding, Dudek is an original. In fact, former Cleveland Browns GM Phil Savage called him just that -- college football's first general manager. Dudek is responsible for everything from recruiting to roster management to being the NFL liaison and the face of the program. On National Signing Day, he is up three hours before the 7 a.m. MT start of the school's streaming announcement show to pluck letters of intent off the fax. "I bounce back and forth from so many different things," said Dudek, a 35-year-old father of three. "I can see myself being an AD. I can see myself being a GM in the NFL." He is not alone. College administrators as a whole are wrestling with the exploding size and worthiness of football staffs. The NCAA Football Oversight Committee is expected to take a deep dive into the subject in the next year.........................Whatever the case, it's clear the money schools earn from the College Football Playoff and network rights fees is being plowed right back into football from whence it came.............."We're a failed business model by nature," said one prominent Power Five athletic director. "If you have 20 shampoo products and two make money, it doesn't make sense. "[Football] makes so much money for the institution. You still got to support 19 other sports. ... You continue to feed the goose. We're not the pro model. "Once you start depleting and investing in that goose that lays the golden egg, [you're in trouble]."................That Power Five AD concluded, "Some are calling them player personnel, analysts. Some call them general mangers. "I don't know where it's all going. I just know that, at the end of the day, football is such a critical component, conference shifts -- all that -- none of it was done because of basketball."

Really, 10 instead of 9 is a "massive" difference?

I don't get it? I played high school football in the '70s, so obviously I'm behind the curve as far as what it's like to be on a football team, I just can't see how this is "massive"?

It would be massive if we were the only ones allowed an extra coach but everybody will have an extra coach so it's all pretty much equal anyways. Our extra coach will be out recruiting against va tech/unc/psu extra coach, same as it is now.

It favors the bigger schools with deep pockets who can go out and pay 800k for a decent coach to just do one thing over most schools (like us)who will pay 1/4th of that to promote a GA.

Our D can use one on one coaching!

We are waiting for Belichick to retire from the Pats to be our 10th assistant.

It's massive in terms of the players. Lowers the ratios a little more for coaching and will aid in player safety.
