Description
Al Bagnoli is an American football coach and former player. He currently serves as the head football coach at the University of Pennsylvania, a position he has held since the 1992 season.
Bagnoli played three years of varsity football at Central Connecticut State University, graduating in 1975. He went on to pursue a master's degree at the University at Albany and worked the 1975 season there as a graduate assistant. He was promoted up to defensive coordinator after just one season and stayed in that role until moving to Division III Union College in 1978. In 1982 he became head coach for the first time at Union.
His first year at Union was the program's first winning season in a dozen years and he posted a winning record every single year during his decade at the school. In 1983 and 1989, Bagnoli and Union reached the NCAA Division III title game and he would win Coach of the Year honors twice, in 1983 and 1991.
In 1992 he was hired by the University of Pennsylvania and is arguably the most successful coach in that school's history. In 21 seasons at Penn he has won nine Ivy League titles, all of them outright, an Ivy League record.
