Becoming a Football Coach JW: Would you briefly trace your coaching experience after you graduated from the University of Oklahoma. DR: I bounced around quite a bit. I always thought that it would be great if I could get a good high-school coaching job. That’s what I thought I would be.

He explained to me that we had academic standards, and we were going to adhere to those standards. And we were going to adhere to the rules. That didn’t bother me. We had a quick interview.

But there’s a way to make contact, and there’s a way that’s totally unacceptable. The throwing of elbows and clipping—the things that cause injuries— I definitely was opposed to those things.
