James Dwyer played his college football at Penn and began his coaching career at LSU in 1911. In three seasons as coach of the Tigers Dwyer’s teams were a combined 16-7-2 and he recorded three straight winning seasons with LSU. He would leave LSU after the 1913 season but would return to coaching 10 years later as head coach at Toledo University from 1923-1925. Dwyer passed away in 1939 at the age of 54.
A former newspaper reporter who has roamed the southeastern United States for years covering football and eating way too many barbecue ribs, if there is such a thing.
