The college football world lost a legend in Howard Schnellenberger, who passed away on Saturday morning at the age of 87.
Schnellenberger was the architect of college football in South Florida — between leading the Miami Hurricanes to their first national championship and bringing football to Florida Atlantic — and his impact in college football as a whole was immeasurable.
Given Schnellenberger’s contributions at the collegiate level, it’s shocking that he still hasn’t been inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame following a career that spanned 27 seasons and included rebuilds with Miami, Louisville and the creation of football at Florida Atlantic.
With Schnellenberger’s passing, let’s take a look at his impact on college football, from Miami to Louisville to Florida Atlantic.
