Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Coach articles campaign
In February 2023, a project was started by several of our editors to improve the coverage of historical college football head coaches, many of which lacked articles. Listed below are several categories of missing coach articles.
Remember that any coach article you make must meet the notability requirements. Newspapers.com and NewspaperArchive are two websites that can be helpful in finding sources for old topics. Strike any articles you've completed with this coding.

Coaches of ten or more seasons
editNote: this list may not be 100% complete as several programs do not have coach navboxes, which were used to find the missing articles. Also, coaches with more than 20 seasons are listed in bold, while those with 30 or more are in bold italics.
