A couple of small jobs that might entice some assistants.
UAB coach resigns
Neil Callaway has resigned as football coach at Alabama-Birmingham.
Athletic director Brian Mackin announced the move after the Blazers completed a 3-9 season. In Callaway?s five seasons as coach, the Blazers went 18-42.
Memphis drops Porter
Memphis has fired coach Larry Porter after going 3-21 in two seasons leading his alma mater.
Porter?s firing came after Saturday?s 44-7 loss at Southern Mississippi, leaving the Tigers 2-10 this season. Fan interest in the program has been diminishing ? an estimated 2,500 showed up for the Tigers? home finale against Marshall on Nov. 17. That increased pressure for a change.
Porter played running back at Memphis from 1990-93. He spent five years on the LSU coaching staff under Les Miles where he had a reputation as one of the top recruiters in the nation.
