Information About

Howard Schnellenberger




Schnellenberger was an All American as a player at the University Of Kentucky and worked as an assistant coach there under head coach Blanton Collier .

He coached Miami to a National Championship in 1983, defeating Nebraska in the 50th Orange Bowl. In all he has 20 years of head coaching experience and a 126-98-3 record at the college level. Following his championship at the University of Miami, Schnellenberger would depart for the USFL where he would become head coach for what was to be a South Florida team (a relocated Washington Federals franchise). That job would never materialize and Schnellenberger would never coach a USFL game.

While at the University Of Louisville , he took a moribund program on the verge of being dropped to 1-AA status to two bowl victories, one of which being an unprecedented 34-7 thrashing of the Alabama Crimson Tide in the 1991 Fiesta Bowl , capping a 10-1-1 season and the school's first-ever national ranking (11).
