Just like the seasons each year, the college coaching landscape is subject to inevitable change. From the high profile names to the small program movers and shakers, 2010 will feature some new faces in new places.

On the men’s side of things, we take a look at some of the notable exits and entrances that may intrigue you in Part One of a two-part series.

Indiana
Out: Mike Freitag
In: Todd Yeagley
Outlook: This former Indiana standout as a player, and later as an assistant coach, has found his way home just as the Hoosiers are in need of a kick in the rear. Coming off a down year in which they missed the tournament, Indiana fans are hoping Todd can restore the hay-day of his legendary coaching father, Jerry.   

Wisconsin
Out: Todd Yeagley
In: John Trask
Outlook: One door closes, and another opens. Trask has assumed the coaching duties left behind by Yeagley. Also an Indiana alum, he’ll have his work cut out for him as Wisconsin hasn’t made the tournament in 14 seasons.

Trask appears up to the task and has a great resume, having led the University of Illinois-Chicago (UIC) to three Horizon League titles and three NCAA appearances in five seasons.

Illinois-Chicago (UIC)
Out: John Trask
In: Sean Phillips
Outlook: Phillips is an in-house promotion who coached alongside Trask while the program built its way up. This will be his first head coaching gig, and he faces the immediate challenge of picking up the pieces left by Trask. UIC had a down year in 2009.

Ian McIntyre, Syracuse's new head coach.

Syracuse
Out: Dean Foti
In: Ian McIntyre
Outlook: The Orange are ready for a new era after saying goodbye to Foti who had coached the team since 1991. McIntyre is in for an adjustment, and joins the Big East having lead New York’s Hartwick College since 2003. He’ll be making the jump while trying to help Syracuse do the same.

Rutgers
Out: Bob Reasso
In: Dan Donigan
Outlook: Donigan has some pretty big shoes to fill as he takes over for Reasso, who held the post for 29 seasons. Donigan enjoyed his own success at St. Louis(m) where he guided the program to three conference titles and a 118-42-23 mark over nine seasons.
