BILL COWHER HEADLINES 2007 FOOTBALL COACHING CLINIC
Clinic to be held March 23-24

Former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher headlines the annual Tennessee Football Coaches Clinic, slated this year for March 23-24 at the Neyland-Thompson Sports Center.

Cowher, who recent accepted an analyst's role for CBS' "The NFL Today" Sunday studio show, resigned as the Steelers' coach in January after 15 seasons. He led Pittsburgh to victory a year ago in Super Bowl XL and compiled a 161-99-1 record during his coaching tenure. In addition, Cowher made six trips to the AFC Championship Game and 10 playoff appearances with the Steelers.

"Coach Cowher leaves in Pittsburgh a tremendous legacy of winning the right way," UT head coach Phillip Fulmer said. "His hard-nosed teams won more games during his 15 seasons as the head coach than any other team in the NFL during that time.

"We are excited that he has agreed to come share some knowledge and stories of his experiences in his years of coaching."

Cowher is scheduled to kick off this year's event with a lecture the morning of March 23. Other featured speakers are Tennessee coordinators John Chavis and David Cutcliffe, along with individual chalk talk sessions with the UT football staff.

To say that Coach Cowher has set the bar for measuring coaching success in the NFL would be a gross understatement. After taking over as the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1992, Coach Cowher spent the next 15 years placing the franchise back amongst the NFL elite. He is one of only six coaches in NFL history to win at least 7 division titles and he and legendary coach Paul Brown are the only two men ever to take their team to the playoffs in their first six seasons at the helm.

Cowher was a team captain and starting linebacker at North Carolina State University before playing in the NFL for six years. He cut his coaching teeth under Marty Schottenheimer at the Cleveland Browns as a special teams coach, defensive backs coach, and finally, in Kansas City, as the defensive coordinator. When he was hired as the head coach of the Steelers in 1992, he became only the second coach the Steelers have had since the merger of the NFL and AFL in 1970. He took over the reigns from Chuck Knoll and held them firmly for the next 15 seasons.

Coach Cowher was the youngest coach ever to take his team to the Super Bowl in 1995, and would win the Super Bowl with a return trip in 2005. At the conclusion of the 2006 NFL season, no team has had a better record than the Steelers since Cowher took over as head coach back in 1992.

Coach Cowher and his wife Kaye have three daughters and can have some pretty mean backyard basketball games as two of his daughters are star players and his wife played professional basketball in the Women's Professional League. Coach Cowher and his family now reside in Raleigh.

For more information, please contact the Tennessee football office at (865) 974-1247.

PLEASE NOTE: All parties interested in hearing Bill Cowher MUST pay for the entire clinic ($50 per person with pre-registration, $60 per person w/o preregistration) and will receive a clinic shirt, notebook, and be able to attend the clinic

Hell, I might go to this, $50 a person is NOTHING... unless I am missing something
