Copeland would be at or near the top. did not have a lot ($$) to work with.
Al Nero,Hal Kopp,Frank Keaney would be on Rhodys Mt. Rushmore also

Coach Copeland was/is a great example of what a coach should be. Please read the gorhody article in the post before this. Just think if he had a school that supported the program. The success he had without an outdoor track to practice on is unbelievable. It was also done with many kids from the state of RI.

Also, Bob Griffin, who was ahead of his time with the passing offense that we see today.

Yes, and URI does not have an outdoor track. But Rhode Island has lots of casinos.

Geza Henni was a great soccer coach. He coached when I was in school.

Nice gathering after the game yesterday for the coach. Billed as an alumni Cross Country and Field Reunion , over 113 turned out for a well deserved tribute. Members as far back as the class of 1964 attended.

Agree. Bob Griffin, IMO, also needs to be on the top coaches list. 79 wins at URI.
