List of current NCAA Division I FCS football coaches
The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Football Championship Subdivision (I FCS) includes 124 teams. Each team has one head coach.[1] Division I FCS is composed of thirteen conferences: Big Sky Conference, Big South Conference, Colonial Athletic Association (CAA), Ivy League, Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), Missouri Valley Football Conference (MVFC), Northeast Conference (NEC), Ohio Valley Conference (OVC), Patriot League, Pioneer Football League, Southern Conference (Southern, or SoCon), Southland Conference, and Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC). All schools except for North Alabama are members of one of these conferences; North Alabama will begin its transition from NCAA Division II to Division I FCS as an independent in 2018 before becoming a football-only member of the Big South in 2019.
As of the end of the 2017 season, the longest-tenured coach in Division I FCS is Jimmye Laycock of William & Mary, who has been the head coach since 1980. In all, 24 FCS programs had new head coaches in 2018.
Conference affiliations are current for the upcoming 2018 season.
