On December 3, 2023, Houston hired Tulane head coach Willie Fritz as the 16th head coach in Cougars history.[39] Then, on January 14, 2024, Arizona head coach Jedd Fisch was announced as the new head coach at Washington, following Kalen DeBoer's departure to replace the retiring Nick Saban at Alabama.[40] Two days later, Arizona announced Brent Brennan, previously head coach at San Jose State, as the 31st head coach in school history.[41]

All-Americans

[edit]
For the complete All-America selections, see 2024 College Football All-America Team.

Currently, the NCAA compiles consensus all-America teams in the sports of Division I-FBS football and Division I men's basketball using a point system computed from All-America teams named by coaches associations or media sources. The system consists of three points for a first-team honor, two points for second-team honor, and one point for third-team honor. Honorable mention and fourth team or lower recognitions are not accorded any points. College Football All-American consensus teams are compiled by position and the player accumulating the most points at each position is named first team consensus all-American. Currently, the NCAA recognizes All-Americans selected by the AP, AFCA, FWAA, TSN, and the WCFF to determine Consensus and Unanimous All-Americans. Any player named to the First Team by all five of the NCAA-recognized selectors is deemed a Unanimous All-American.[49][50]
