Jim Trimble
James W. "Jim" Trimble (May 29, 1918 – May 23, 2006) was a football coach who served as head coach in both the National Football League and Canadian Football League, but his legacy is more connected to football products, thanks to his "slingshot" goal posts. In the NFL, he spent four years leading the Philadelphia Eagles, before spending the next decade in the CFL, most notably with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
==Early life and career==
Trimble grew up in McKeesport, Pennsylvania. He worked in the steel mills dragging slag off the steel melts in the furnaces; this caused him to develop a huge upper torso and very strong arms. In 1936 he was left tackle on the football team of Elgin Academy (a private school) in Elgin, Ill. The Hilltoppers lost no games in 1936 and 1937.
Later, he played tackle at Indiana University for three years beginning in 1939. After graduating in 1942, he entered the U.S. Navy, spending the next three years in the service during World War II. Upon the end of the conflict, he was named a line coach at Wichita State University, then became the school's head coach at the end of the 1947 season. Trimble held that position for three seasons and his overall coaching record at Wichita State was 13 wins, 14 losses, and 3 ties.〔(Wichita St. Coaching Records )〕
