Royal Collection: 25 Albums, 1926-2011, no date Abstract Darrell K. Royal is the most significant football coach in the history of the University of Texas at Austin. During his twenty years on the Forty Acres, he never had a losing season. He played football at Hollis (Oklahoma) High School and went on to star for the University of Oklahoma. He began coaching the Longhorns in 1957. He led Texas to three National Championships in 1963, 1969 and 1970. President Lyndon B. Johnson called him personally after the 1963 Cotton Bowl win over Navy. After retiring from coaching in 1976, Royal stayed on as the UT Austin Athletic Director (a post he had held since 1962) until 1980. Along with football, Royal loved music, making Austin a perfect fit, and he was good friends with Merle Haggard, George Jones and Willie Nelson, among others. Celebrated for both his wisdom and his wit, people referred to Royal as “Coach” on the UT Austin campus and all over the state. Coach Royal passed away on November 6, 2012 and is a football and Texas legend second to none. Access Access to the Darrell K. Royal Collection is restricted to visitors of the H.J.
