Wallace Wade
Wallace Wade was a college football, basketball and baseball coach for more than 30 years in the 1910’s, 20’s, 30’s and 40’s, mostly at Duke University and the University of Alabama. He coached the Crimson Tide for eight seasons from 1923-1930, posting a career record of 61-13-3 in 77 games at Alabama. He won three national championships in Tuscaloosa in 1925, 1926 and 1930, and went 2-0-1 in three Rose Bowl appearances. Pre-dating the SEC, Wade’s Alabama teams won four Southern Conference titles (he won six more SoCon titles at Duke). He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1955 and passed away in 1986 at the age of 94.
