''Buying: Alex Golesh is a future SEC head coach

Move over, Jon Sumrall — there’s a new hot SEC head coaching candidate on the market. After leading South Florida to back-to-back ranked wins over Boise State and Florida, Alex Golesh is likely to be at the front of the line for whichever SEC jobs open this winter. That could include Florida if — and, more likely, when — Billy Napier is fired. Auburn, LSU and Oklahoma are off to good starts, but any of those jobs could still open, too, and Golesh would be a sensible candidate.

The advanced stats mostly back up both of Golesh’s top-25 wins this year. Per Bill Connelly’s postgame win expectancy, the Bulls had a 98.5% chance to beat Boise State and a 53.9% chance to beat Florida. USF is also 13th nationally in adjusted net EPA per play, according to Game on Paper.

I also like that Golesh comes from the Josh Heupel tree — Heupel is one of the better program managers in the country. Combine that with Golesh’s play-calling and you may have something special. ''
