The winningest coach all- time in college football history, Gagliardi currently owns a 457-124-11 (.781) career record and a 433-118-10 (.781) record at SJU. Both win totals are NCAA records. Gagliardi’s 60 years of collegiate coaching is also an NCAA record, breaking the old record of 57 years by former University of Chicago and University of the Pacific head coach Amos Alonzo Stagg (1890-1946). Gagliardi broke the late Eddie Robinson’s record for the most games coach in college football history (588) Sept. 20 against Concordia-Moorhead. Gagliardi to Receive Stagg Award: Head coach John Gagliardi was named the 2009 recipient of the American Football Coaches’ Association’s (AFCA) Amos Alonzo Stagg Award Sept. 24. The award, which honors those “whose services have been outstanding in the advancement of the best interests of football,” will be presented to Gagliardi at the AFCA Awards Luncheon on Jan. 13 during the 2009 AFCA Convention in Nashville, Tenn. Previous winners include Paul “Bear” Bryant (1983), Woody Hayes (1986) and Joe Paterno (2002). The late Bill Walsh received the award posthumously last year. Vanderheyden Pulls in Big Day: Junior wide receiver Ben Vanderheyden (left; Plymouth, Minn./Wayzata) caught six passes for 195 yards and three touchdowns in the Johnnies' 40-7 win over Hamline last Saturday. Vanderheyden caught touchdown receptions of 67, 35, and 31 yards, respectively, and recorded his second consecutive 100-yard receiving game. The 195 yards receiving is the most since Jeremy Loretz gained 199 yards through the air against Carleton on Oct. 22, 1994. Vanderheyden currently leads the MIAC with 603 yards receiving and an average of 18.3 yards per reception (min. 20 receptions).

  • Dooley Selected As Recipient of 38Th Corbett Award
    Dooley Selected As Recipient Of 38th Corbett Award May 11, 2004 Cleveland, Ohio - Vince Dooley, director of athletics at the University of Georgia, has been chosen by the Officers and Executive Committee of NACDA to be the recipient of the 39th James J. Corbett Memorial Award. The Corbett Award is presented annually to the collegiate administrator who "through the years has most typified Corbett's devotion to intercollegiate athletics and worked unceasingly for its betterment." Corbett, athletics director at Louisiana State University, was NACDA's first president in 1965. The award is the highest honor one can achieve in collegiate athletics administration. Additionally, Dooley will receive an honorary degree from the Sports Management Institute (SMI), an educational institute sponsored by NACDA and the universities of Michigan, North Carolina, Notre Dame, South Carolina, Southern California and Texas. Dooley's extensive career in collegiate athletics began when he returned to Auburn University, his alma mater, after service in the Marines to take on assistant football coaching duties. He was soon hired as the head football coach at Georgia (1963-88) where he has since remained, devoting more than 40 years of service. As head coach, Dooley led the team to six Southeastern Conference (SEC) championship titles, 20 bowl games and a national championship in 1980, one year after being named Georgia's athletics director. Dooley continued to manage the dual role of head football coach and athletics director until 1988, during which time he earned two National Coach of the Year distinctions (1980, 1982). When he stepped down as coach to focus his energies on the athletics director's position, Dooley's 201 career victories ranked third among active coaches and led to his induction into the College Hall of Fame in 1994.

On that day, it is said, football changed forever. For 18 students from the University of Notre Dame, a small Catholic college in northern Indiana, the trip began two days earlier, when they boarded a day coach in downtown South Bend, headed East on the longest football trek ever attempted at a school that began playing the game 25 years earlier. The captain of the Notre Dame squad, 25-year-old Knute Kenneth Rockne, reflected on his journey of the previous two decades. As a five-year-old, he was a new immigrant from Norway, learning English at the spanking new Brentano Elementary School in an area recently annexed to Chicago.
