List of UAB Blazers head football coaches
The UAB Blazers college football team represents the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) in the East Division of Conference USA (C-USA). The program began in the 1991 season and spent two years as a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III independent before transferring to Division II. After just three years in Division II, the school entered Division I-A, now known as the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS). During this twenty-four year period, the Blazers had five head coaches.〔Alabama-Birmingham Coaching Records〕 In January 2014, Bill Clark was hired to coach the program. However, following the end of Clark's first season, in which he led the team to its second-ever bowl-eligible record, UAB President Ray L. Watts announced the cancellation of the football program, due to financial strains. After media condemnation of the decision and millions of dollars in fundraising, on June 1, 2015, Watts announced the school would reinstate football as early as the 2016 season. Clark remains head coach through the 2016 season, despite the cancellation.
The school adopted the nickname "Blazers" for its sports programs in 1978, in preparation for the basketball program's inaugural season. On January 13 of that year, a campus election selected the name with about 50% of 2600-person vote of students, professors, and administration. The nickname was selected over the options of Barons, Warriors, or Titans. After two different mascots, the nickname became representative of Blaze the Dragon, the school's mascot since the 1995 season. The Blazers played in 273 games during the twenty-four seasons before the cancellation. In those seasons, Watson Brown was the only coach to lead the team to a postseason game, the 2004 Hawaii Bowl.〔''2012 UAB Football Media Guide'', p. 130〕 None of UAB's coaches has been enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame and no coach has led them to a national championship.〔
