Summarize your bug I am unsure how to replicate this bug, but during the post-season which I wasn't playing in I fired my DC and hired a new one. After the superbowl my new DC retired without coaching a game, leaving me with a vacancy again. When I went to find a new one to hire during the offseason there were no coaches of any kind available and an error message "THERE IS NO DATA TO DISPLAY." shows on the page where you would normally see coaches. Of note: This franchise was simmed long into the future and this happened in the year 2038. There are no coaches showing for any player in the league. I created a new coach, my old coach didnt show up in the pool, so I fired the OC and he showed up as well as other OCs, but as soon as I hired him the rest disappeared again. Creating a new coach on a different team and firing their DC made him show up in the pool but no others showed up. There are also CPU teams with coaching vacancies that are going unfilled due to this bug.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Sim 20 years into the future, play a season, fire a coordinator, hire a new one during the post season, have them retire / take a HC job, see if there are coaches available to hire during the offseason.
What happens when the bug occurs? There are no coaches of any kind showing up that can be hired.
What do you expect to see? Coaches available for hire.

FOUND A FIX!
The same thing you described to me happened in the year 2034 of my colts franchise, my defensive coordinator retired week 18 and was unable to play the playoffs due to not being able to hire a coach.
How TO FIX: switch user to another team and fire that teams defensive coordinator. Switch back to your user team and that coach that was fired will be able to be hired. Saved my franchise and hope this helps! -thanks
