Dirk Koetter will not return next season as Arizona State football coach, sources said today. Second-year Athletic Director Lisa Love will discuss Koetter's dismissal tonight after the ASU football banquet. Koetter also is expected to speak with the media.
Koetter is 40-33 (21-28 Pac-10) in six seasons at ASU. He is under contract through Jan. 6, 2010 under terms of a two-year extension approved by the Arizona Board of Regents in March.
He is owed $2,850,000 in guaranteed salary for 2007-09 unless a settlement is reached with ASU as part of a resignation. ASU completed its regular season with a 7-5 record after defeating Arizona 28-14 on Saturday. The Sun Devils will play in a third straight bowl game, probably the Las Vegas Bowl on Dec. 21 or the Emerald Bowl in San Francisco on Dec. 27.
It's unknown if Koetter, 47, will coach in the bowl game.

Michigan fans are worried that Ron English could be interested in this job...

good I hope someone hires him. He is a pain in the ass when it comes to recruiting.

His troubles were highlighted when he changed the starting QB to Carpenter just before the season started, after the team seemingly forced him into that move right after he named Keller the starter. Then Keller transferred to Nebraska.

If I was a Michigan fan I'd be worried too.
The man can coach and the man can recruit.

Silly bastard is going to be thinking about the sophomoric way he handled that situation for the rest of his life, because not only did it cost him this job, but it will be in the mind of everyone else who ever interviews him, if anyone does...
