Lee Corso (1969-72)
- Induction:
- 2004
Lee Corso guided the Cardinals to two Missouri Valley Conference Championships in his four seasons at UofL (1969-72), his first head coaching assignment. The colorful and energetic Corso had a 28-11-3 record at UofL, leading the Cards to a 9-1 record in 1972 while ranking among the nation's top 20 teams (No. 16 UPI, No. 18 AP).
His 1972 defensive unit, led by Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year Tom Jackson, gave up just 91 points. Under his direction, the 1970 Cardinals reached only the second bowl game in UofL history, winning the Pasadena Bowl 27-24 over Long Beach State to cap an 8-3-1 season.
Corso currently serves as a college football analyst for ESPN.
