Talk:List of college football head coaches with non-consecutive tenure

Needed
The following items are needed for this list:
 * 1) More additions to the list... you can't tell me that only Kansas schools do this!
 * 2) Sorting ability
 * 3) any new columns, such as city? state? other schools?

Question
SHould we be including coaches whose only reason for a "break" was because the school suspended the program for WWI or WWII and no other coach had the position in between? I think "no" ...--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:01, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I strongly think the answer should be NO - they should not be included in the list. But, a note should be made in the introduction saying that they are not included with examples of those coaches. -Kgwo1972 (talk) 02:13, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

One coach, multiple schools
There are several coaches on this list (I think I counted 9) who had non-consecutive tenure at two schools each. This is currently accomplished by having the coach's name cover two rows (rowspan=2); however, this interferes with sortability. I think the best solution would be to list those coaches' names twice, that way the sorting will work properly. Thoughts? cmadler (talk) 15:22, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * The other thought is to remove the sorting feature...--Paul McDonald (talk) 16:56, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I wonder if there's some kind of conditional display formatting that could be used. Like "if this cell matches the cell above, then display it once with rowspan=2". I'm not that familiar with more advanced table formatting, but something like that could fix this. cmadler (talk) 16:59, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Alvarez
After Barry Alvarez coaches Wisconsin in the bowl game, won't he need to go onto this list? 75.252.125.27 (talk) 02:16, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
 * The practice has been to include temporary coaches that coach even one game and return (as in [{Bo Pelini]]) so someone who coaches a game once after a hiatus should also be on. However, I recommend that we wait until the game is actually coached.  It may be a concept worth discussing...--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:30, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
