Bernie Bierman
Bierman coached for 27 seasons on a variety of different teams: Minnesota, Iowa, Tulane, Mississippi State, and Montana. Bierman went 153 – 65 – 12 in his career and the highlight of his career came when he won a title with Minnesota. Bierman’s career was sidelined by World War II for a while, to say the least.
