Chicago Football Traditions The “C” Logo
The Founders Cup
The University of Chicago athletics emblem underwent several changes during the institution’s early years. The first football team in 1892 sported no recognizable emblem on its uniforms. In an effort to provide the team with an identity, the letters “UC” were cut out of brown paper and pasted on the players’ uniforms. In the spring of 1893, the emblem was modified into the form of a monogram that the baseball team incorporated on its uniforms. A single letter was used for the first time in 1894 when the football and track squads displayed an oblong “C” on their uniforms. That emblem remained in existence until 1897 when it was replaced by a “C” in large, round type. Then in 1898, Maroon teams adopted the Chicago “C” emblem, which has been worn to the present day.

Maroon, Maroons & The Phoenix Maroon and “Maroons” became the University of Chicago’s official color and nickname, respectively, at a meeting of students and faculty on May 5, 1894. Before the University held its first classes on October 1, 1892, the Board of Trustees had selected goldenrod (yellow) as the school’s official color. By 1894, however, Chicago’s legendary football coach Amos Alonzo Stagg believed that a change was necessary. “The yellow ran, soiled easily, and had a regrettable symbolism which our opponents might not be above commenting upon,” said Stagg in his autobiography, Touchdown! Because maroon was not already in use by any major school in the Midwest, Stagg and his associate J.E. Raycroft brought a selection of maroon shades to the 1894 meeting of students and faculty. The meeting attendees made a choice from those ribbons, and the baseball team appeared in that color during its final games of the 1894 season. On July 21, 1894, the first mention of a U. of C. athletic team as “Maroons” appeared in the Chicago Tribune in an article about the baseball team. The Phoenix – which is featured as part of the University’s official coat of arms, or shield – serves as the school’s mascot. The University of Chicago Board of Trustees adopted the shield in 1910.
Awarded annually to the winner of the Chicago/Washington-St. Louis game since 1987, the Founders Cup commemorates the first football game played between two UAA schools during the league’s initial year of existence. Washington holds a 17-7 all-time advantage in Founders Cup battles. The Maroons regained the cup last year with a 13-10 win at Stagg Field.

UAA & NCAA Division III The University Athletic Association
NCAA Division III
In 1987, Chicago became a charter member of a new and unique NCAA Division III conference, the University Athletic Association. Comprised of some of the nation’s leading research institutions, UAA members include Brandeis University, Carnegie Mellon University, Case Western Reserve University, Emory University, New York University, the University of Rochester, and Washington University in St. Louis. Since its founding, the UAA has continued to serve as a bold statement of the vision of its founders — that the pursuit of academic and athletic excellence are complementary goals and can be achieved without the compromise of one by the other. Implicit in this vision are three assumptions: • The academic enterprise is the primary element. Studentathletes are just that — students first and athletes second. • Athletic excellence is not to be confused with a win-at-allcosts attitude. It properly relates to the caliber of experience offered to students who participate in intercollegiate athletics. • Athletics should not only complement the academic experience, but should also reflect the quality of the academic environment within which they exist. Division III is an approach to athletics — not a synonym for third-rate. Since joining the UAA, Chicago teams have captured 44 conference championships, made 52 NCAA tournament appearances, and posted eight national top-four finishes. In addition, 10 Maroons have claimed NCAA individual titles and two have been selected as the national player of the year.
The University of Chicago has competed at the NCAA Division III level since it was established in 1973. The largest of the three NCAA Divisions, Division III counted as members 432 institutions (20 percent public, 80 percent private) in 2009-10.
The UAA in Theory • Academic excellence and athletic excellence are not mutually exclusive. • The academic enterprise is the primary element. • Athletic excellence properly relates to the caliber of experience offered to students. • Athletic programs should reflect the quality of the academic environment within which they exist. • A consistent and challenging level of athletic competition should be provided for both women and men.
The UAA in Practice • In 2009-10, 24 student-athletes from UAA institutions were recognized as CoSIDA Academic All-Americans and six were named NCAA Postgraduate Scholars. • 153 UAA student-athletes received All-America honors with 19 garnering individual national championship or Player of the Year accolades. • In 2009-10 NCAA championship competition, 19 UAA teams finished in the top 10 in their national championships, while another 15 finished in the top 20.
UChicago Football 2011
What is the NCAA Division III? • Division III features student-athletes who are subject to the same admission standards, academic standards, housing, and support services as the general student body. Division III studentathletes are not permitted to receive athletically-related financial aid. • Division III offers an intense and competitive athletics environment for student-athletes who play for the love of the game, without the obligation of an athletics scholarship. • Division III athletics departments place special importance on the impact of athletics on the participants rather than on the spectators. The student-athlete’s experience is of paramount concern. • Division III athletics provides a well-rounded collegiate experience that involves a balance of rigorous academics, competitive athletics, and the opportunity to pursue the multitude of other co-curricular and extra-curricular opportunities. • Division III places primary emphasis on regional in-season and conference competition, while also offering 36 national championships annually. • Division III playing season and eligibility standards minimize conflicts between athletics and academics, allowing student-athletes to focus on their academic programs and the achievement of a degree. • Division III athletics departments are dedicated to offering broad-based programs with a high number and wide range of athletics participation opportunities for both men and women. • Division III affords student-athletes the opportunity to discover valuable lessons in teamwork, discipline, perseverance, and leadership, which in turn make student-athletes better students and responsible citizens. • Division III encourages student-athletes to take advantage of the many opportunities available to them, both within and beyond athletics, so that they may develop their full potential as students, athletes, and citizens.

The University of Chicago The University of Chicago is one of the world’s great intellectual communities and centers of learning. It has achieved particular distinction in faculty scholarship, the training of graduate students, and for its renowned undergraduate education that emphasizes critical thinking, intellectual depth, and cultural breadth. Founded in 1890 by John D. Rockefeller, the University opened its doors for classes on October 1, 1892, with an enrollment of 594 students. President William Rainey Harper presided over a faculty of 103, which included eight former college presidents. Today, the University features a total enrollment of approximately 15,149 students — including more than 5,027 undergraduates — and a 2,211-member faculty. The University is private, nondenominational, and coeducational, and it includes the undergraduate College, four graduate divisions, six graduate professional schools, the library, the Graham Center of General Studies, and the University of Chicago Press. The University also features several cultural resources, including the Oriental Institute Museum, Court Theatre, Renaissance Society, and the Smart Museum of Art. Extending along both sides of the Midway Plaisance, which was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and used for the World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893, the University occupies a 190-acre campus. The English collegiate Gothic style set the general tone for the design and development of the campus. Around a series of tree-shaded quadrangles, imposing buildings of gray limestone with red-tile roofs, and deep-set rectangular windows show off elaborate ornamentation, gargoyles and chimeras, and decorated towers. These quadrangles are dominated by Rockefeller Memorial Chapel, with its 207-foot tower, and by the Joseph Regenstein Library, one of the largest academic libraries in the United States. Many campus structures have been designated national historic landmarks, including Frank Lloyd Wright’s Robie House and the site of the first controlled, self-sustaining nuclear reaction marked by the Henry Moore sculpture Nuclear Energy. Chicago has had a major impact on American higher education — inventing the four-quarter system, developing extension courses and programs in the liberal arts for adults, establishing a coherent program of general education for undergraduates, and initiating a full-time medical school teaching faculty. Chicago also pioneered orientation week and gives the nation’s oldest teaching awards. Since the University’s founding, more than 80 recipients of the Nobel Prize have been students, researchers, or faculty. The University is located in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, one of the world’s most exciting and vibrant cities. About 65 percent of the University’s faculty and their families and nearly all of its students live in the Hyde Park neighborhood. One of Chicago’s biggest tourist attractions, the Museum of Science and Industry, is located here, as well as the DuSable Museum of African-American History and the Weiss Museum of Judaica. Just 15 minutes north of Hyde Park is the Chicago Loop, where students and faculty regularly attend an array of theater, movies, art exhibits, museums, and restaurants. Some of Chicago’s main cultural attractions are the Art Institute, the Lyric Opera, the Chicago Symphony, the Goodman Theatre, and the Museum of Contemporary Art. Scores of other professional and community theater, dance, and visual arts organizations are active in the city. Architecturally, Chicago is the home of many major developments in 20thcentury architecture and urban design. One of the nation’s greatest sports cities, Chicago is the home of two Major League Baseball teams – the White Sox and the Cubs – as well as the National Basketball Association Bulls, the National Football League Bears, the National Hockey League Blackhawks, the Major League Soccer Fire, and the Women’s National Basketball Association Sky.

Athletics at UChicago At the University of Chicago, the classical and oldfashioned ideal of the student-athlete is consistent with the highest levels of athletics and academic success. Throughout the University’s history its student-athletes and teams have met that unique challenge, demonstrating that academic and athletic excellence can complement each other.
The UAA Chicago, which sponsors 19 intercollegiate sports, is a charter member of the University Athletic Association, an NCAA Division III conference formed in 1986 as a bold statement of what college athletics can and should be — that it is highly desirable and possible for a group of committed institutions to seek excellence in athletics while holding the student-athlete and the institution’s academic mission as the center of focus. The eight members of the UAA include Brandeis University, Carnegie Mellon University, Case Western Reserve University, Emory University, New York University, the University of Chicago, the University of Rochester, and Washington University in St. Louis. With its membership in the UAA, Chicago offers its student-athletes the opportunity to compete against athletes and teams from among the top research institutions in the country, as well as travel opportunities comparable to those offered by members of major Division I conferences. Chicago has played a major role in helping the UAA attain its goal of achieving the proper balance between athletics and academics. In Reclaiming the Game: College Sports and Education Values, author William Bowen –– president of the Mellon Foundation –– posed the question, “How has the UAA managed to mount what is, by all signs, a successful intercollegiate program without paying the academic price that is so evident in other similar college athletics conferences?” Bowen continued, “The active involvement of the University of Chicago, with its emphasis on core academic values, has without question been a help in achieving and maintaining this policy.”
Success on the Playing Field In 2010-11, Chicago finished 27th in the nation among 447 NCAA Division III institutions in the final standings for the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup, which recognizes the top overall athletic programs in the country. Chicago teams notched national top-10 finishes in women’s tennis (4th), women’s basketball (quarterfinalist) and women’s cross country (10th), and won UAA championships in women’s basketball, football, women’s soccer, and wrestling. The Maroons also featured two NCAA Postgraduate Scholars, 14 All-Americans, 14 national qualifiers, seven UAA MVPs, two UAA Rookies of the Year, and 121 All-UAA performers.
Rhodes Scholars & Academic Excellence During Chicago’s early years as a member of the Big Ten Conference, the athletics program counted numerous distinguished scholar-athletes among its ranks, including 1910 Rhodes Scholar Edwin Hubble, a basketball player who later became a distinguished scientist for whom the Hubble Space telescope is named. Chicago has furthered that tradition in recent years as its student-athletes have continued to compile an extraordinary record of academic and athletic accomplishment, highlighted by four Rhodes Scholars, three individual national champions, and two national players of the year since 1996. Many of the most outstanding athletes at Chicago have also distinguished themselves in the classroom. In 2010-11, for example, Chicago featured 247 UAA All-Academic Recognition Award recipients.
Award-Winning Facility In the fall of 2003, Chicago Athletics entered a new era with the opening of the $51 million Gerald Ratner Athletics Center. Designed by famed architect Cesar Pelli, the 150,000-square-foot facility includes a 1,658-seat competition gymnasium which is home to the Chicago basketball, volleyball, and wrestling teams. In addition to the competition gymnasium, the facility features the 50-meter Myers-McLoraine Pool, the Bernard J. DelGiorno Fitness Center, a dance room, classrooms, the Athletics Hall of Fame, locker rooms, offices, and saunas. In short, the University of Chicago provides student-athletes with what might be the best balance in higher education: an extraordinary commitment to academic excellence recognized all over the world, a high-quality intercollegiate athletics program consistent with its academic mission, unique conference travel and competition, and outstanding athletics and recreational facilities.
UChicago Football 2011
Athletic Director Tom Weingartner To m We i n gartner has served as director of athletics and chairman of the department of physical education and athletics at the University of Chicago since March 1990. We i n g a r t n e r was instrumental in the planning and building of the $51 million Gerald Ratner Athletics Center, which opened in the fall of 2003 to provide the University with its first new athletics center since the 1930s and its first new swimming pool in nearly a century. During Weingartner’s tenure, Chicago has sent teams and individuals to NCAA Division III postseason competition in 16 different sports and has captured University Athletic Association team titles in 11 sports. Under Weingartner, Chicago Athletics has maintained its adherence to the notion that academic and athletic excellence complement each other. For example, since 1996 four Chicago student-athletes have received Rhodes Scholarships. Chicago has also featured an NCAA Walter Byers Scholarship Award winner as well as numerous NCAA Postgraduate Scholars and Academic All-Americans. As a group, Chicago male and female student-athletes have consistently maintained a cumulative GPA roughly equal to, or higher than, that of the general student body. Weingartner chaired the NCAA Committee on Amateurism, which passed groundbreaking amateurism reform legislation at the 2001 NCAA convention. The committee offered recommendations regarding professional contracts, entry drafts, seasons of competition rules, competition with professionals, acceptance of prize money, and the acceptance of pay for play. Weingartner served as athletic director and associate professor of human development at Manhattanville (N.Y.) College from 1985-90. From 1979-85, he was the athletics director and an assistant professor of human development at St. Mary’s (Md.) College. Weingartner began his college athletics career at Northwestern University, where he served as director of intramural, recreational, and club sports from 1974-79. In 1970, Weingartner earned a bachelor’s degree from Stanford University, where he was a linebacker on the Cardinal football team. He received a master’s degree and doctorate in educational administration from Northwestern in 1972 and 1977, respectively. Weingartner and his wife, Susan, reside in Hyde Park. They have a daughter, Jessie, and a son, Clayton.

Coaching Staff Head Coach Dick Maloney Coming off one of his most successful campaigns as the University of Chicago’s head football coach, Dick Maloney enters his 18th year with the Maroons in 2011. Last season, Maloney guided Chicago to its fourth University Athletic Association championship and an 8-2 overall record – matching the most wins by a UChicago team during the school’s modern football era. Maloney, who boasts 37 years experience coaching at the collegiate and professional levels, earned his fifth UAA Coach of the Year award last fall while raising his career record to 85-71. Maloney’s .545 winning percentage ranks second all-time at Chicago, trailing only the legendary Amos Alonzo Stagg. En route to becoming the winningest coach of Chicago’s modern football era (since 1969), Maloney has produced a 52-27 (.658) mark at Stagg Field – home of the Maroons since the program returned to NCAA Division III competition in 1969. During Maloney’s tenure, Chicago has boasted seven All-Americans, six UAA Offensive Players of the Year, three UAA Defensive Players of the Year, six UAA Rookies of the Year, and two Aztec Bowl selections. Maloney’s teams have also claimed a pair of NCAA Division III team statistical titles and have featured three individual national statistical leaders. Led by Aztec Bowl selection and UAA Defensive Player of the Year, Rob Tamillow, and the NCAA Division III interceptions leader, Colin Carrier, Chicago captured its third UAA championship with a 3-0 mark in league play in 2005. After starting the season 0-4, the Maroons won their final five games by a combined score of 173-23 en route to a 5-4 record. The 2005 campaign marked Chicago’s sixth winning season in the previous nine years. In 2002, Maloney’s squad featured one of the most potent passing attacks in the NCAA Division III as the Maroons averaged 303.1 yards through the air – 10th-best in the country. Featuring three-time All-UAA quarterback Josh Dunn, who ranked 13th in Division III in total offense, and wideout Jim Raptis, who stood fourth in receptions and 11th in receiving yards, Chicago produced the nation’s 24th-most prolific offense with more than 425 yards per game. In addition to the Maroons’ NCAA statistical leaders, several other players garnered national distinction during the 2002 campaign, including All-America tight end Mike Healy. From 1997 to 2001, Maloney guided the Maroons to five straight winning seasons, a feat last accomplished by Stagg during Chicago’s years as a member of the Big Ten Conference from 1911-15. Maloney led the Maroons to a 6-3 mark in 2001 as Chicago featured an explosive offense that averaged more than 29 points and 415 yards per game. En route to earning his third UAA Coach of the Year honor in 2000, Maloney guided the Maroons to their second UAA championship with a 4-0 mark in league play and a 7-2 overall record. Led by two-time AllAmerica linebacker Dan Philips, Chicago featured the top rushing defense in the NCAA Division III. Maloney earned his second UAA Coach of the Year award in 1998 after steering the Maroons to their first-ever UAA championship with a 4-0 conference mark and a 7-2 overall record. The Maroons’ UAA crown

marked the school’s first football conference title since it won the Big Ten in 1924. In his second season at Chicago in 1995, Maloney directed the Maroons to a record of 8-2 – their first winning season since 1987 – and enjoyed the school’s winningest campaign since 1905. Maloney’s club gained national distinction as it ranked sixth in the NCAA Division III in kickoff return average and boasted the nation’s top kickoff return specialist in All-American Derrick Brooms. Maloney made an immediate impact at Chicago in his debut season in 1994. Inheriting a team that had thrown for just 179 yards the previous year, Maloney’s squad set 17 school passing marks en route to a 5-5 finish. Following the season, Maloney was chosen as the UAA Coach of the Year to become the first Chicago football coach to gain that honor. Before arriving at Chicago, Maloney served as the offensive line coach for the Canadian Football League’s Ottawa Rough Riders from 1991-93. During his tenure, the Rough Riders qualified for the CFL playoffs every season and twice boasted the league’s top offensive lineman. Prior to his time in the CFL, Maloney gained 17 years of collegiate coaching experience, including stints at a pair of Ivy League institutions. He served as offensive coordinator at Penn from 1986-90 and as offensive line coach at Dartmouth from 1982-85. Maloney spent five seasons (1977-81) as offensive line coach at Boston University and one year (1976) as an assistant coach at Boston College. He began his career in 1974 as a defensive line coach at Albany. During his 34-year college coaching career, Maloney has served as head or assistant coach of 10 conference champions, including an unbeaten Penn club in 1986. In all, Maloney has coached 15 All-Americans and several players who went on to play in the NFL. The 10th coach in Chicago football history and the eighth of the school’s modern football era, Maloney is a 1974 graduate of the UMassBoston, where he majored in elementary education. In 1980, he earned a master’s degree in education from Albany. Maloney resides in southwest suburban Plainfield with his wife, Carolyn. His son, Andrew, was a four-time football letterwinner at Chicago from 2001-04. A wide receiver, he garnered All-UAA recognition in 2004.

One of the great innovators in the development of college football, Amos Alonzo Stagg served as head football coach at Chicago from 1892 to 1932. Stagg compiled a record of 224112-27 and led the Maroons to seven Big Ten Conference titles (1899, 1905, 1907, 1908, 1913, 1922, 1924). Under Stagg’s guidance, Chicago emerged as one of the nation’s most formidable football powers during the first quarter of the 20th century. Stagg’s impact on the game of football began during his college playing days at Yale, where he was named to the first-ever All-America team as an end in 1889. Stagg began his coaching career the next year at the Springfield, Massachusetts, YMCA, now Springfield College. Stagg formed the school’s first football team, and among his players was James Naismith, the inventor of basketball. William Rainey Harper, who was Stagg’s divinity professor at Yale, was appointed the first president of the University of Chicago and in 1892 named Stagg head football coach and director of the department of physical culture, a post Stagg would retain for 41 years. In addition to his football duties, Stagg coached track for 32 years, baseball for 19 years, and basketball for one season. He also helped to organize the Big Ten Conference, then known as the Western Conference. Among the innovations credited to Stagg are the tackling dummy, the huddle, the reverse and man-in-motion plays, the lateral pass, uniform numbers, and varsity letters. After retiring from Chicago in 1932, Stagg served as head coach at Pacific from 1932 to 1946, then served as an assistant coach to his son at Susquehanna until 1952. He passed away in 1965 at the age of 102. Stagg was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1951 as both a player and coach. The NCAA recognized Stagg’s contributions by designating the Division III championship game the Stagg Bowl. Legendary Notre Dame coach Knute Rockne said of Stagg, “All football comes from Stagg.”

Early Era History Chronological History 1890s 1890 William Rainey Harper, the University of Chicago’s first president, appoints Amos Alonzo Stagg the school’s first head football coach. Stagg would serve in that role for 41 years, during which time he would revolutionize college football. 1892 Chicago begins its initial year of intercollegiate football competition ... In their first game against a collegiate foe, the Maroons battle Northwestern to a scoreless tie ... Chicago defeats Illinois 10-4 to mark its first win against a major college opponent. 1893 Chicago merchant Marshall Field donates the use of campus land for home football games. Initially named Marshall Field, it would eventually become Stagg Field ... Chicago plays on Thanksgiving Day for the first time, losing to Michigan 28-10. 1894 Stagg adopts maroon as Chicago’s official color ... Chicago embarks on an unprecedented 6,200-mile tour of the Pacific Coast, during which it splits a pair of games with Stanford. After defeating the Cardinal 24-4 on Christmas Day, the Maroons fall 12-0 in Los Angeles just four days later. Many college football historians consider the Dec. 29 contest to be the genesis of the modern-day college bowl game.

1895 Chicago becomes a charter member of the Western Conference, which would later be known as the Big Ten Conference. 1896 In its inaugural Big Ten campaign, Chicago posts a 3-2 mark against conference rivals. 1898 Clarence Herschberger becomes Chicago’s first consensus All-American. 1899 Chicago wins its first Big Ten title with a 4-0 mark in league play and records its first unbeaten season with a record of 12-0-2.

1902 Chicago re-emerges as a regional power as the Maroons win 11 of 12 games. 1903 During its 10-2-1 season, Chicago wins its first seven contests by an astounding 284-0 margin. 1905 Chicago records its first perfect record with a 10-0 mark en route to its second Big Ten title ... In their final Thanksgiving Day game, the Maroons defeat Michigan 2-0, marking Chicago’s emergence as the top football school in the West. 1905-06 Football at Chicago survives an attempt by the University Senate to discontinue the program. Serious injuries – including deaths – as well as concerns about the eroding of the amateur player ideal lead to major rule changes throughout the country.

1906 In a dramatic reduction in schedule, Chicago finishes the season with a 4-1 record ... Walter Eckersall named a consensus All-American for the third straight year. 1907 Chicago sweeps its four Big Ten contests to capture its third conference championship. 1908 With a 5-0 record in conference play, Chicago collects its fourth Big Ten title and its second in as many years.

On Dec. 2, 1942, beneath the abandoned west stands of Stagg Field, Enrico Fermi and a team of scientists achieved the first self-sustaining chain reaction, which led to the development of the atomic bomb. Today, the Joseph Regenstein Library stands on the site of the original Stagg Field at 1100 East 57th Street.

Early Era History Honor Roll Jay Berwanger Heisman Trophy Winner 1935 In November 1935, University of Chicago senior Jay Berwanger received a telegram from Manhattan’s Downtown Athletic Club, informing him that he had won a trophy for being the “most valuable football player east of the Mississippi.” The prize, then known as the Downtown Athletic Club Trophy, was renamed the Heisman Trophy the following year. Renowned for his versatility, Berwanger played nearly every position on offense and defense. During the 1935 campaign, he rushed for 577 yards, passed for 405, returned kickoffs for 359, scored six touchdowns, and added five PATs for 41 points. Following the 1935 season, the Chicago Tribune awarded Berwanger the Silver Football as the Most Valuable Player in the Big Ten. In a poll of 107 opposing players he faced during his senior year, 104 said the sixfoot, 195-pound Berwanger was the best halfback they had ever seen. Berwanger was the only Heisman recipient tackled by a future United States president – Gerald Ford – during a 1934 game between Chicago and Michigan. “Jay was most deserving of his Heisman Trophy. He could do it all,” President Ford recalled. “He was an outstanding runner as well a passer and kicker. I remember him fondly as one of the greatest athletes I’ve known.” In addition to his distinction as the first-ever Heisman Trophy recipient, Berwanger was the first player chosen in the inaugural National Football League draft in 1936. He was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles, who traded his rights to the Chicago Bears. Berwanger turned down the opportunity to pursue a professional football career, citing low pay. During World War II, he enrolled in the United States Navy’s flight-training program and became a naval officer. After the war, he established a plastic and rubber manufacturing company in Chicago’s western suburbs. In 1954, Berwanger was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame. Then in 1989, he was included on Sports Illustrated’s 25-year anniversary All-America team, which honored players whose accomplishments extended beyond the football field. Berwanger died during the summer of 2002.

Thirty years after the University of Chicago discontinued intercollegiate football in 1939, the sport returned to varsity status at the NCAA Division III level. The genesis of the return of football occurred in 1956, when Walter Hass was appointed director of athletics A long-time college football coach, Hass initiated a football class as part of the physical education curriculum, which by 1960 evolved into a club program competing against other teams in the area. Prompted by Hass’s strident lobbying efforts as well as a student body petition, the University of Chicago elevated football to varsity status beginning with the 1969 season. Hass, who guided the Maroons to a 2-4 record in 1969, continued coaching through 1975 and during that span continued to upgrade the schedule with quality opponents. His efforts established the foundation for Division III football at Chicago. Hass was selected for induction into the University of Chicago Athletics Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2007. The Maroons celebrated the 40-year anniversary of the return of varsity football during the team’s 2009 Homecoming game against Denison University. Members of the 1969 squad, the first to play varsity football after it was eliminated 30 years earlier, served as honorary team captains for the pregame coin toss.
