Joe Gardi Hofstra University Head Football Coach JOE GARDI HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY HEAD FOOTBALL COACH Hofstra University Head Football Coach Joe Gardi is in his 13th season at the helm of the Pride program in 2002. Gardi, who spent nine years as an assistant coach with the New York Jets, has recorded a 99-36-2 record in his 12 seasons at Hofstra. His .730 winning percentage is the highest in Hofstra Football coaching history. Under Gardi's guidance, Hofstra made the jump from NCAA Division III in 1990 to I-AA in 1994. Since then, the Pride have become a top 10 I-AA program and have earned five NCAA I-AA championship bids in the last seven seasons. Over the past 12 years, more than 90 school records, seven ECAC marks, and four NCAA records have either been topped or tied by the Pride. In 2001 Hofstra ended its I-AA independent status by joining the Atlantic 10 Football Conference. Gardi directed the Pride to a 9-2 regular season record including a 7-2 conference mark, the League’s co-championship, the A-10’s automatic bid to the NCAA I-AA Playoffs and a Top 10 final national ranking. As a team, Hofstra ranked in the top 10 in I-AA in total offense (2), punt returns (3), passing offense (4), scoring offense (5) and turnover margin (10). In 2000 Hofstra recorded an 8-3 regular season record and was ranked as high as fourth in the country in I-AA. The Pride received their fourth I-AA Playoff bid and defeated Furman on the road in the opening round before losing to eventual national champions Georgia Southern in the quarterfinals. Hofstra finished the year 9-4 and was ranked seventh in the final I-AA poll by The Sports Network. The Pride ranked 11th in scoring offense, 17th in passing offense, 18th in total offense and 21st in turnover margin in I-AA. In 1999 Hofstra recorded a 10-1 regular season mark and was ranked as high as fourth in the country. The Flying Dutchmen received their third NCAA I-AA Championship bid, advanced to the quarterfinals, finished the year with an 11-2 overall record and captured the Lambert Cup as the top I-AA program in the East. Hofstra was ranked seventh in scoring defense, 10th in turnover margin, 14th in pass efficiency defense, 24th in scoring offense and 31st in total offense. Along the way, Gardi was a finalist for the Eddie Robinson Award as I-AA Coach of the Year. In 1998 the Flying Dutchmen posted an 8-3 record, attained their highest-ever I-AA ranking at fifth in the nation, and were ranked fifth in scoring offense, 10th in turnover margin, 11th in total offense and 12th in kickoff return average in I-AA. Two years earlier, Hofstra posted a 9-2 regular season record, was ranked 14th in the country, received its second I-AA playoff bid, and ranked second in passing offense, eighth in total offense and ninth in scoring offense. Individually, five Flying Dutchmen placed in the top 10 of four categories. In 1995 Gardi directed the Dutchmen to a 10-1-0 regular season (losing only to I-AA national finalist Marshall, 30-28), as well as to the I-AA playoffs and Hofstra's first-ever I-AA top 10 national ranking−finishing ninth at the end of the regular season. In the process, Hofstra ranked in the top 10 in the country in seven team statistical categories. For his efforts, Gardi received numerous postseason coaching honors, including the Scotty Whitelaw Award from the Metropolitan Football Writers Association as the ECAC I-AA Coach of the Year. Gardi also became the first recipient of the Vince Lombardi College Coach of the Year Award from the Lombardi Foundation. The National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame named Gardi the Division I-AA Coach of the Year, and the National Football League Players Association selected him its I-AA College Coach of the Year. Gardi also received the Long Island Sports Commission’s Good Guy Award. In 1996, despite a 5-6 record, the Flying Dutchmen were ranked in the top 10 in four team statistical categories, including rushing defense, total defense and scoring defense. Other highlights of Gardi's 12-year tenure at Hofstra include 10 winning seasons in 12 campaigns and the third undefeated regular season in school history in 1990. He also recorded the school's first-ever NCAA playoff victories, an NCAA East Regional championship and a berth in the national semifinals in 1990. Under his guidance the team posted eight victories in 13- I-AA games in 1991 and 1992, as Hofstra prepared for the move to I-AA. In 1993 Hofstra recorded a 6-3-1 mark in its first official season as a I-AA member and an 8-1-1 record and a 22nd-place national ranking in 1994. Gardi came to Hofstra after five years (1985-90) as assistant supervisor of officials for the National Football League. His duties in the League office included the evaluation, recruitment and training of college officials for positions in the professional ranks. From 1976 through 1984, Gardi served as an assistant coach with the Jets under three head coaches. He served as special teams/tight ends coach under Lou Holtz in 1976; special teams/linebackers coach from 1977 to 1980 and defensive coordinator in 1981 and 1982 under Walt Michaels; and assistant head coach/defensive coordinator under Joe Walton in 1983 and 1984. In 1981 the Jets formed the best defensive unit in the American Football Conference, allowing just 304 yards per game, while recording an NFL-best 66 sacks. In the strike-shortened 1982 season, the Jets advanced to the AFC Championship game before dropping a 14-0 decision to Miami, despite holding the Dolphins to just 197 yards in the contest. A native of Harrison, New Jersey, Gardi was a first-team all-state selection as an offensive guard at Harrison High School in 1955. He attended the University of Maryland from 1956 to 1960 and was the Terrapins’ co-captain and Unsung Hero Award winner as an offensive tackle and linebacker in 1959. At 20 years old, Gardi signed a contract with the Washington Redskins, playing in two preseason games in 1960 and also had a tryout with the Buffalo Bills in 1961. In 1964 Gardi returned to football as head coach at The Oratory Prep in Summit, New Jersey. After a 0-9 season in his first year, he took that program, which had lost 37 consecutive games prior to his arrival, to records of 6-3 in 1965 and 5-4 in 1966. Gardi moved on to Roselle Park High School (New Jersey) to become Head Football Coach and teacher at a school that had not recorded a winning season in 10 years. After a 2-7 first season, Gardi led Roselle Park to a 6-3 mark in 1968 and a 9-0 slate and the state championship in 1969. Gardi returned to the University of Maryland in 1970 as head freshman coach and recruiter. In his first season of recruiting the Long Island-Metropolitan area, Gardi signed five All-Long Island team players, including Bob Avellini from New Hyde Park, Joe Brancato and Frank Russell from Wantagh, and Jamie Franklin from Brentwood. The following season, he was named to coach the Terrapins’ varsity offensive line. In 1972 Maryland's new coach, Jerry Claiborne, rehired Gardi to direct the receivers. In 1974 Gardi left Maryland for a whirlwind tenure in the World Football League. He served as running backs and special teams coach for the Philadelphia Bell in 1974. Gardi was promoted to interim head coach for the 1975 season opener and led the Bell to a 31-30 victory over the Portland Thunder. Moving to the front office after that victory, Gardi was named head coach of the Thunder two months later and posted a 2-1 record in three games before the league folded. The question asked most frequently of Gardi after his hiring was why he left an executive position with the NFL for the college gridiron wars. "The simplest answer to why I left the NFL would be that I wanted to be called ‘coach’ again," Gardi said. "I can't think of a better place to do that than at Hofstra. Having spent nine years on this campus when I was with the Jets, I feel as if I am coming home. I know Hofstra is a great university and the facilities, both athletic and academic, are super. I am excited about being called ‘coach’ again and about being back home." A popular motivational and football orator, Joe has spoken at banquets, clubs and clinics in more than 15 states. He currently serves as a board member for the Vince Lombardi Memorial Golf Tournament for Cancer Research and is a member of The Dante Foundation, which provides critical support for Long Island students. Gardi served on the committee for the Christa House charity dinner to benefit a hospice for HIV patients and is a sponsor and supporter for St. Mary’s Hospital for Children, Good Samaritan Hospital, Long Island Jewish Hospital and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. The year 2000 was an exciting one for Gardi, as he was inducted into the Harrison (NJ) Hall of Fame and the Suffolk County Hall of Fame and was cited for coaching excellence by both the New Jersey Sports Writers Association and the Nassau County Sports Commission. Gardi and his wife, Audrey, have two grown children, Joanne, an accountant; and T.

    THE CHRONICLE MONDAY, NOVEMBER 23. 1987 « DUKE UNIVERSITY DURHAM. NORTH CAROLINA CIRCULATION: 15,000 VOL, 83, NO. 60 Football beats UNC 25-10 to reclaim bell By BRENT BELVIN CHAPEL HILL — The Victory Bell, given to the win­ ner of the annual season-ending Duke-North Carolina football game, returns to Durham after the Blue Devils pasted the Tar Heels 25-10 Saturday afternoon in Chapel Hill. The victory raised Duke's record to 5-6, the Blue Devils' best record since 1982, while UNC dropped to 5-6. In a season full of narrow and bitter defeats, eighteen seniors were able to walk away from their collegiate ca­ reers on a positive note. At halftime, however, they might have wondered if Duke was on its way to another devastating loss. Sophomore placekicker Doug Peterson had missed an extra-point after Duke's first touchdown, and after a penalty nullified a touchdown pass, senior quarterback Steve Slayden threw an ill-advised pass that was picked off in the endzone. Instead of leading by seven at halftime, Duke found it­ self down by one — 10-9. But the Blue Devils, aided by injuries to Tar Heel quarterback Mark Maye and star tailback Torin Dorn, exploded in the second half to out- LANCE MORITZ/THE CHRONICLE score the Tar Heels 16-0. Steve Slayden hands off to Stanley Monk. Slayden and Monk were two of 18 seniors who can say their last "Our defense gave up some pass plays," said Duke collegiate game was a 25-10 trouncing of the University of North Carolina.

  • When the Nfl Had Character
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 1 (1995) WHEN THE NFL HAD CHARACTER By Stanley Grosshandler Two generations of football fans have grown up since the 1953 season, part of the decade called "The Golden Age of the NFL." Younger fans today may find it surprising to learn that the NFL was losing star players back then to the draft (remember the draft?) and to the Canadian Football League. The Korean Conflict had siphoned several top men into the service, including Cleveland tackle Bob Gain, the Cardinals great Ollie Matson, and San Francisco's versatile tackle Bob Toneff. Meanwhile, the Canadian Football League made some inroads by luring a handful north of the border. Among the emmigrants were Cleveland's star end Mac Speedie, the Giants' center-tackle Tex Coulter and defensive end Ray Poole, San Francisco defensive back Jim Cason, and an Eagle receiver named Bud Grant who would return a dozen years later as a coach. Although these and several other well-known players missed the 1953 season, the league still continued to grow in popularity -- due in part to the individual aura that made each team special. Teams then had a their own particular character and each had an identifiable leader. They were not the plastic, look-alike teams who strive today for parity (another name for mediocracy) and play for the field goal. Reviewing those rosters of forty years ago can still produce chills among some "veteran" fans. The Cleveland Browns had the confidence and composure of their coach Paul Brown. They did not have to be told they were winners.

And then from here we'll go to San Francisco and then we'll get home, our opener is next Tuesday. Season is underway. Will Hobson: Indeed it is. I'm a lifelong Phillies fan and their season started off the other day exactly as I would've expected. Charley Steiner: Well, sadly the season ended on opening day for you guys. 1 Will Hobson: They might be a little bit better this year than they were last year but at least they've got a few young kids that are worth paying attention to like Franco and what have you. Charley Steiner: It ain't pretty. Will Hobson: Yeah. Well, I appreciate you calling back.
