I've been keeping track of the counts of new D1 Head coaches. (The numbers may not be solid, I simply sort the list by first season, and count, which only works for the most recent season.)

I note that the count had dropped considerably. I don't have older values, so I do not know for sure which values are the odd ones out.
I see 31 coaches who started in 2011-12 and are still active. The number of new coaches in that year is at least that large, but not much larger, unless there are a lot hired that year who were fired soon after.
Any speculation why 2012–13 and 2013–14 were so high?
2012–13 season 76 new head coaches
2013–14 season 60 new head coaches (counting one interim head coach)
2014–15 season 29 new head coaches
