Head coaching turnover is at an all-time high in college athletics. College basketball is no exception. Only about a 1/3 of Division I college basketball programs have had their head coach in place for more than 5 years. The top 3 longest tenured head coaches in college basketball changed at the end of last season with the retirement of Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski.

We have the top 10 (plus 1) longest tenured college basketball coaches:
