John Gill (coach)
John W. Gill (November 27, 1898 – March 4, 1997)〔()〕 was an American football coach. Gill graduated from Western State Teachers College (now known as Western Michigan University) in 1924 and became an assistant football coach under head coach Mike Gary. At the time of the 1930 United States Census, Gill was living in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and his occupation was listed as a teacher at a college.〔Census entry for John W. Gill. Ancestry.com. 1930 United States Census (on-line ). Census Place: Kalamazoo, Kalamazoo, Michigan; Roll: 998; Page: 9A; Enumeration District: 21; File: 180.0.〕 In 1939, Gill recommended that the Western Michigan athletic teams change their mascot from "Hilltoppers" to "Broncos," and his suggestion was adopted by the school. Gill was awarded $10,000 for submitting the team's nickname, funds which he donated to the Waldo Stadium building fund.〔 He was the head football coach at Western Michigan University for 11 years from 1942 to 1952.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=College Football Data Warehouse )〕 He compiled a record of 50–34–1 as head coach, and his best season was 1948 when he led the Broncos to a 6–3 record as his team outscored opponents 199 to 106.〔 In 1952, Gill was appointed as the associated athletic director at Western Michigan. He continued to serve in that capacity until his retirement in 1969.〔
