After taking over the reins from Hall of Fame coach John Chaney on April 10, 2006, Dunphy brought the Owls back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2001 in just his second season when he guided his charges to the 2008 Atlantic 10 Championship. The following year, he again led the Owls to the A-10 title, becoming the first conference team to win consecutive championships since 2001. The 17th head men’s basketball coach in Temple’s 108-year history of men’s basketball, Dunphy, now in his fourth season with the Cherry and White, is the first person to serve as the head men’s basketball coach at two Philadelphia Big 5 institutions. After 17 years, nine NCAA Tournament bids and 310 wins as head coach at Penn, Dunphy moved North to Temple to replace the legendary Chaney. The 2008 Eastern College Coach of the Year, Dunphy led his second Temple team on a late-season run to the Atlantic 10 Championship. He guided the Cherry and White to a 21-13 overall mark in 2007-08, including a second place A-10 regular season finish with an 11-5 conference record. As an encore, he directed his charges in 2008-09 to a 22-12 record, 11-5 in league play, and another conference championship. One of the most respected coaches in the nation, Dunphy, who owns a 355-206 overall record, has personified success over his coaching career. His impressive resume includes 11 NCAA bids, 12 conference titles, 11 20-win seasons, four Philadelphia Big 5 City Series titles, seven Ivy League Players of the Year, three Ivy League Rookies of the Year, five perfect Ivy League seasons and 41 All-Ivy League honorees. Prior to joining Penn’s coaching staff, Dunphy served as an assistant under Speedy Morris at his alma mater, La Salle University (1985-86 through 1987- 88). The 58-year old Philadelphia native’s coaching career began at the United States Military Academy (1971-72), where he served as an assistant under head coach Dan Dougherty. In 1975, he left Army to become head coach of his high school alma mater, Malvern Prep. He remained there until becoming Lefty Ervin’s assistant at La Salle University (1979-80). The following year, Dunphy joined current Maryland head coach Gary Williams’ staff at American University. He returned to La Salle in 1985, serving one more season under Ervin and assisting Speedy Morris for two seasons. He left La Salle to become Tom Schneider’s top assistant at Penn in 1988. In 1989, Dunphy was named the 16th head coach at Penn. He would compile a 310-163 overall record in his 17-year career. His Quaker teams won an unprecedented 48 straight Ivy League games and four league titles from 1992 through 1996. His 1993-94 team posted a 25-3 record and earned a Number 25 ranking in the CNN/USA Today Coaches’ Poll, the program’s first such ranking since the 1978-79 campaign. That year also included a 90-80 first round upset of sixth-seed Nebraska in the NCAA Tournament. A full-time educator on and off the court, Dunphy is in his third year teaching in Temple’s prestigious Fox School of Business. He is team-teaching an honors course with Dr. Lynne Anderson, entitled, Management, Theory & Practice:From the Locker Room to the Board Room. He previously had served as a lecturer in the Wharton Executive Education program and in the management department of the Wharton School. Dunphy is one of the leaders in the local Coaches vs. Cancer campaign and was named to the National Council of Coaches vs. Cancer. He was also honored as the 2002 National Coaches vs. Cancer Coach of the Year for his service and tireless dedication to those in need. On September 23, he joined four other coaches to speak to legislators on Capitol Hill on the need for more funding for cancer research. The Owl mentor also devotes time to Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Greater Philadelphia’s Board of Directors, and his Penn teams have participated in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program each year. He is also a member of the Philadelphia CYO Hall of Fame and the corporate committee of the National Adoption Center’s annual Gala. A 1970 La Salle graduate with a degree in marketing, Dunphy was an outstanding player under Explorers’ head coach Tom Gola. As a junior, he helped the Explorers to a 23-1 record. He served as a co-captain his senior year when he averaged 18.6 ppg and led the team in assists, while also being named the MVP of the annual Quaker City Basketball Tournament. In 1979, he earned a Master’s degree in counseling and human relations from Villanova University.
