Dave Doeren and the chase for the Golden Era of NC State Football

There is only one man who oversaw the NC State Football program for longer than Dave Doeren’s current tenure at the helm: Earle Edwards.

From 1954-1970, Edwards led the program through ups and downs, including a ridiculous run from 1963-1968 that saw the team go a combined 31-10 in ACC play and capture four conference titles (he also won the ACC in 1957), with Edwards winning ACC Coach of the Year three times (and also in 1957).

With eight years now under Doeren in Raleigh, it’s an opportune time to look at his results and how that stacks up to the coaches before him.
