Tom Herman
Before Herman became the head coach at the The University of Texas at Austin, he was head coach at the University of Houston. In 2015, he picked up a win at the American Athletic Conference. He’s still young, but he has so much potential.
Herman has lobbied for a 7-on-7 coaches system for high school coaches. It has been met with great approval and praise from coaches across Texas. A number of coaches posted pictures on Twitter of letters they received from Herman.
Bud Wilkinson
The College Football Hall of Famer also was a player, broadcaster, and politician. While the head football coach at the University of Oklahoma from 1947 to 1963, he compiled a record of 145–29–4. He took the Sooners to three national championships wins and 14 conference titles.
Between 1953 and 1957, his squads won 47 straight games, a record that still stands at the highest level of college football. Bud Wilkinson is a name to look out for.
