'''John Franklin Broyles''' (December 26, 1924 – August 14, 2017) was an American [[college football]] player and coach, college athletics administrator, and broadcaster. He served as the head football coach for one season at the [[University of Missouri]] in 1957 and at the [[University of Arkansas]] from 1958 to 1976, compiling a career coaching record of 149–62–6. Broyles was also the [[athletic director]] at Arkansas from 1974 to 2007. His mark of 144–58–5 in 19 seasons at the helm of the [[Arkansas Razorbacks football]] gives him the most wins and the most coached games of any head coach in program history. With Arkansas, Broyles won seven [[Southwest Conference]] titles and his [[1964 Arkansas Razorbacks football team|1964 team]] was named a [[College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS|national champion]] by a number of selectors including the [[Football Writers Association of America]].

Broyles attended [[Georgia Tech]], where he was the starting [[quarterback]] for the [[Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football|Yellow Jackets]] and also lettered in [[baseball]] and [[basketball]]. Following his playing career, he was an assistant football coach at [[Baylor University]], the [[University of Florida]], and his alma mater, Georgia Tech. Broyles was inducted into the [[College Football Hall of Fame]] as a coach in 1983.

==Playing career==
After his graduation from [[Decatur High School (Georgia)|Decatur Boys High School]], Broyles studied at [[Georgia Tech]], where he was a [[quarterback]] from 1944 to 1946. He graduated from Georgia Tech with a degree in Industrial Management. Broyles started all of Tech's games as quarterback during his senior season, and led the Yellow Jackets to the [[1945 Orange Bowl]]. Tech lost the bowl game, but in defeat Broyles set an Orange Bowl record for passing yards with 304. The record stood for 55 years until eclipsed by [[Michigan Wolverines football|Michigan]] quarterback [[Tom Brady]] in the [[2000 Orange Bowl]]. Broyles is a member of the [[Orange Bowl]] (1991), [[Gator Bowl]] (1995), and [[Cotton Bowl Classic]] (1999) halls of fame, and the Georgia Tech Hall of Fame.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Frank Broyles |url=http://www.hognation.net/broyles.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121029172824/http://www.hognation.net/broyles.html |archive-date=October 29, 2012 |access-date=February 15, 2013 |website=Hog Nation }}</ref> Broyles was drafted by the [[Chicago Bears]] in the third round of the [[1946 NFL draft]] when he still had a year of college eligibility.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mayer |first=Larry |date=April 25, 2013 |title=These Bears draft picks gained fame in other areas |url=http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1/These-Bears-draft-picks-gained-fame-in-other-areas/ec6dca7b-ad41-43ac-839c-e61e0197ecc9 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130428074306/http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1/These-Bears-draft-picks-gained-fame-in-other-areas/ec6dca7b-ad41-43ac-839c-e61e0197ecc9 |archive-date=April 28, 2013 |access-date=April 25, 2013 |publisher=[[Chicago Bears]]}}</ref> When his college career was over he moved straight into coaching.

While at Georgia Tech he also played basketball.

==Coaching career==
[[File:Frank Broyles, 1956.png|thumb|324x324px|Broyles on the [[Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football|Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets]] coaching staff, {{Circa|1956}}]]
Broyles entered coaching in 1947 as the backfield coach under head coach [[Bob Woodruff (American football)|Bob Woodruff]] at [[Baylor University]].<ref>{{Cite news |last=Miller |first=Tom |date=March 5, 1947 |title=Broyles Signs As Baylor Coach |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-atlanta-constitution-broyles-signs-a/145221347/ |access-date=April 12, 2024 |work=The Atlanta Constitution |pages=10}}</ref> In 1950, Broyles followed Woodruff when the latter took the head coach position at the [[University of Florida]].<ref>{{Cite news |last=Tucker |first=Jinx |date=January 17, 1950 |title=Frank Broyles To Florida Job |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-waco-news-tribune-frank-broyles-to-f/145221387/ |access-date=April 12, 2024 |work=The Waco News-Tribune |pages=9}}</ref> In 1951, he left Florida and returned to Georgia Tech as the backfield coach under coach [[Bobby Dodd]].<ref>{{Cite news |date=November 30, 1950 |title=Frank Broyles Returns To Tech |url=https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-macon-telegraph-frank-broyles-return/145221420/ |access-date=April 12, 2024 |work=The Macon Telegraph |pages=1}}</ref> Broyles sought the head coaching position at [[Northwestern University]] in 1954,<ref name="Northwestern">{{Cite web |title=Keeping the Faith |url=http://www.northwestern.edu/magazine/northwestern/summer2002/features/coverstory/index.htm |access-date=July 20, 2007 |publisher=Northwestern}}</ref> and ultimately left Georgia Tech in 1957 when he was offered the position of head coach at the [[University of Missouri]]. Broyles stayed at Missouri only one season when he was offered the head coaching job at Arkansas. During his nineteen years as head coach there, he was offered other major coaching and leadership positions, but remained at Arkansas.

During his tenure at [[University of Arkansas|Arkansas]], Broyles coached the Razorbacks to seven [[Southwest Conference]] championships, and two [[Cotton Bowl Classic]] wins. His 1964 team was proclaimed national champions by the [[Football Writers Association of America]], as well as the [[Helms Foundation]], and to date is the last Razorback team to go undefeated and untied in a season. If the wire service polls had not given out their national championships prior to the bowl games during that era of college football, Arkansas positively would have won both the AP and the UPI national titles as well. Not only were the Razorbacks the only undefeated and untied team in the nation, but AP and UPI national champion Alabama lost to Texas (a team Arkansas beat in Austin in 1964) in the Orange Bowl. He still holds the record for most wins by a head coach in the history of Arkansas football, with 144. During the 1960s and 1970s, one of college football's most intense rivalries was between Broyles' Razorbacks and the [[University of Texas at Austin|University of Texas]] [[Texas Longhorns football|Longhorns]] under legendary coach [[Darrell Royal]].

Among Broyles' most memorable victories while coaching the Razorbacks was the 14–13 win over No. 1 Texas in 1964 in Austin, the [[1965 Cotton Bowl]] victory over Nebraska to complete an undefeated season, the [[1969 Sugar Bowl]] victory over Georgia, beating No. 2 Texas A&M in the 1975 season finale to win a share of the SWC championship, and then beating Georgia in the [[1976 Cotton Bowl]].

The two most painful losses in his tenure at Arkansas, included the [[1966 Cotton Bowl Classic (January)|1966 Cotton Bowl]] loss to LSU that snapped Arkansas' 22 game winning streak, and, most famously, the 1969 [[1969 Texas vs. Arkansas football game|Game of the Century]] that saw No. 1 Texas come from behind to beat No. 2 Arkansas, 15–14.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Stacy |first=Kelli |date=2019-12-06 |title=Remembering Texas and Arkansas' 1969 'Game of the Century,' from three guys who played the game |url=https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/1437164/2019/12/06/50th-anniversary-texas-arkansas-1969-game-of-century/ |access-date=2025-07-12 |website=The New York Times |language=en-US}}</ref>

==Broadcasting career==
After his retirement from coaching, but concurrent with the early part of his tenure as men's athletic director at Arkansas, Broyles served as the primary [[color commentator]] for [[ABC Sports]] television coverage of [[ESPN College Football on ABC|college football]], normally alongside top play-by-play man [[Keith Jackson]]. Broyles' time as a broadcaster at [[ABC Sports|ABC]] lasted from 1977 to 1985. Broyles was often assigned games involving [[Southeastern Conference]] or [[Southwest Conference]] teams, but if the primary game of a particular week involved the Razorbacks, Broyles was paired with another play-by-play man, many times [[Al Michaels]] or [[Chris Schenkel]], while Jackson called the game with another color commentator, many times [[Ara Parseghian]]. Broyles' commentary was normally focused on play calling and coaching strategy, and while paired with Jackson, resulted in an all-Georgian booth (Jackson was a native of [[Roopville, Georgia|Roopville]]).

As a member of [[Augusta National Golf Club]], Broyles from 1972 to 1977 co-hosted (with tournament chairmen [[Clifford Roberts]] and William Lane) the [[Augusta National Golf Club#Green jacket|green jacket]] presentation ceremony at the end of the [[Masters Tournament]] from Butler Cabin televised on [[CBS]].

==Athletic director==
In 1974 Broyles was appointed Men's [[Athletic Director]] of the University of Arkansas.<ref name="p594">{{cite web | last=Maisel | first=Ivan | title=Frank Broyles' Arkansas legacy lives on | website=ESPN.com | date=2017-08-14 | url=https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/20343924/frank-broyles-arkansas-razorbacks-legacy-lives-on | access-date=2024-12-04}}</ref> (Arkansas had a [[Arkansas Ladybacks|completely separate women's athletics department]] from 1971 until the men's and women's programs were merged in 2008.) Broyles continued as head football coach for three years. Since stepping down as head coach, the University of Arkansas men's athletic programs under his leadership as athletic director won 43 national championships. The Razorbacks won 57 [[Southwest Conference]] championships and 47 [[Southeastern Conference]] championships during his tenure. Broyles disbanded the men's swimming and diving program to satisfy new regulations from the SEC of having two more women's sports than men's sports.<ref>{{Cite magazine |date=Spring 1976 |title=Alumni in the News |url=http://www.enivation.com/SigmaPi/Archive/Emerald/1976/SP_EMERALD_VOL_64_NO_1_SPRING_1976.pdf |magazine=The Emerald of Sigma Pi |page=5 |volume=64 |number=1}}{{Dead link|date=March 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

On February 17, 2007, Broyles announced his plans to retire as Men's Athletic Director, effective December 31, 2007, ending his half-century association with Arkansas.<ref>{{Cite news |date=February 18, 2007 |title=Arkansas AD Frank Broyles will resign at end of year |url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/2007-02-17-broyles-resignation_x.htm |access-date=March 22, 2007 |work=USA Today}}</ref>

==Criticism==

As athletic director, Broyles was known for being very hands-on with the football program.  Indeed, at least one head coach, [[Ken Hatfield]], left the school because he couldn't abide Broyles' meddling.  After Hatfield left, at least one booster doubted whether the Razorbacks would ever attract a top-tier head coach as long as Broyles was athletic director.<ref>Murphy, Austin. [https://archive.today/20120718023850/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1004245/index.htm Not exactly Hog Heaven]. ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'', September 21, 1992.</ref>

In 2000, following an expansion of Razorback Stadium, Broyles announced that one home game would move from War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock to Fayetteville, and that, in the near future, all home games might be played on campus. In the end, a long-term agreement was reached to keep 2–3 games in Little Rock, while the rest would be played in Fayetteville.<ref>{{Cite web |date=February 15, 2000 |title=Were We Robbed of the Razorbacks?:UA announces that more games will be played in Fayetteville |url=http://littlerock.about.com/library/weekly/aa021500a.htm/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051031171004/http://littlerock.about.com/library/weekly/aa021500a.htm |archive-date=October 31, 2005 |access-date=February 18, 2007}}</ref>
As of the Fall 2022 season, all home games (7 for 2022) will be played in Fayetteville.

Over thirty of his former players have also become college or professional football coaches. Broyles is known for producing high quality coaches and the prestigious ''Broyles Award'', the annual award for best assistant coach, is named after him. [[Barry Switzer]], [[Johnny Majors]], [[Joe Gibbs]], [[Hayden Fry]], and [[Jimmy Johnson (American football coach)|Jimmy Johnson]] all served under Broyles and have combined to win five collegiate national championships and six [[Super Bowl]]s. Broyles' assistants have won more than 40 conference titles. Dallas Cowboys owner [[Jerry Jones]] played on Broyles' 1964 Championship team.

Broyles' tenure as men's athletic director has seen the construction of world-class facilities for basketball, football, track and field (indoor and outdoor), golf, and baseball at Arkansas. Broyles was selected as the 20th century's most influential Arkansas sports figure. Broyles will be remembered as the only SEC athletic director that had to drop a men's sport, bringing into questions the health of the athletic department under his leadership.

Broyles was known as a fierce competitor both as a head coach and athletic director. Broyles led Arkansas out of the Southwest Conference and into the Southeastern Conference.

In 1983 Broyles was inducted into the [[College Football Hall of Fame]], and in 1996, the [[Broyles Award]] was established to recognize the top [[assistant coach]]es in college football. He was a member of the [[Augusta National Golf Club]].<ref>[http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/golf/masters/2002-09-27-augusta-list.htm Augusta National Golf Club members list], ''[[USA Today]]''</ref>

In 2005, after his wife Barbara was diagnosed and died from  [[Alzheimer's disease]], Broyles became an outspoken advocate for Alzheimer's awareness and established the Frank and Barbara Broyles Foundation to support caregivers of Alzheimer's patients. With the assistance of the University of Arkansas Medical Sciences, he published and distributed 100,000 free copies of a book titled ''Coach Broyles' Playbook for Alzheimer's Caregivers'' to pharmacies throughout the state of Arkansas. In 2007 and again in 2009, Broyles successfully raised funds to distribute 500,000 copies of the book nationally, plus 100,000 copies in Spanish. Since then, the book has been translated into 11 different languages and distributed digitally worldwide.<ref>{{Cite web |last=<!--Not stated--> |title=Our Legacy |url=https://www.broylesfoundation.org/our-legacy/ |access-date=October 12, 2019 |website=The Broyles Foundation}}</ref> Broyles himself would eventually succumb to complications of the same disease on August 14, 2017 he had 2 children..<ref>{{Cite web |last=<!--Not stated--> |title=In the News – Alzheimer's Association Mourns Death of Legendary Football Coach, Alzheimer's Advocate Frank Broyles |url=https://www.alz.org/news/2017/alzheimers_association_mourns_death_of_legendary |access-date=October 12, 2019 |website=Alzheimer's Association |date=August 14, 2017 |quote="The Alzheimer’s Association extends sincere condolences to the family of Coach Frank Broyles following his death due to complications of Alzheimer’s.
