Legendary Air Force coach Fisher DeBerry elected to CFB Hall of Fame

The National Football Foundation Board of Directors announced today that former Air Force head coach Fisher DeBerry has been elected into the College Football Hall of Fame.

More than well deserving, DeBerry led Air Force to a 169-109-1 record in his 23-year tenure in Colorado Springs. His teams posted 17 winning seasons, including 12 bowl bids in which the Falcons went 6-6. Especially important at the academy was that DeBerry captured the Commander-in-Chief trophy 14 times outright in his 23 years.

  1. "5-9... 6-2 with the hat." One of those guys I'll describe to youngsters years from now as a "tough S.O.B."
