FORT WAYNE, Ind. — Kevin Donley thought he knew everything about coaching when he took over the Anderson College football program at 26 years old. His goal? Chase down Alabama legend Bear Bryant on the all-time wins list.
"And here I am a few years later," Donley said, "realizing that I don't know anything."
But while he says he's still learning, The Bear isn't far off.
Donley, 65, is the head coach at the University of St. Francis, an NAIA school in Fort Wayne. He's also the newest member of the 300-win club—only the 13th college football coach to ever reach the mark—and the winningest coach in NAIA history.
