  • 7-18-21 Alabama A&M
    ALABAMA A&M FOOTBALL SPRING 2021 HBCU NATIONAL CHAMPIONS SWAC CHAMPIONS CONNELL MAYNOR One of the more successful coaches over the past two decades, Maynor was named head coach at Alabama A&M on January 16, 2018, bringing with him an extensive background at both the collegiate and professional levels as a player and coach. Upon his hiring that included being part of 10 championship teams with six of those rings coming as a player and four as a coach. He currently enters the Fall 2021 season with an 83-41 overall record in 11 years at three institutions. ALABAMA A&M (2018-PRESENT, HEAD COACH) Since taking the reins of the Bulldogs in 2018 Maynor has compiled an 18-10 overall record, 12-5 mark in the Southwestern Athletic Conference and accomplished things no other coach has at A&M. The Spring 2021 season saw him add to not only his personal championship ring collection but to that of his players as he guided Alabama A&M to a perfect 5-0 record and 3-0 league mark, accomplishing three impressive milestones in one fell swoop on May 1. That day would see a thrilling 40-33 victory over No. 25 Arkansas-Pine Bluff that delivered the fi rst SWAC Championship in 15 years (and second in program history), the fi rst undefeated season since the 1966 season 53 seasons prior and the fi rst ever Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) National Championship for the program. Those accomplishments earned him a spot as one of 16 national fi nalists for the Eddie Robinson Award as the nation’s top FCS coach but were fueled by the eff orts of the players he recruited.
