Bob Surace, Princeton University
TOPIC: Offensive Line Techniques and the No Huddle Attack |
 Thursday March 1, 2012—9:15-10:45 PM
The 22nd head coach at Princeton, Surace was a first-team All-Ivy center when he helped the 1989 Tigers to a 6-1 league mark and a share of the Ivy title. In addition to his tenure with the Bengals, Surace was also the head coach at Division III Western Connecticut State University, where he put together an 18-3 record in 2000 and 2001.
"We are thrilled that Bob Surace will be our new head coach, Walters said. "He has experience as a player here at Princeton, as well as in the NFL and as a college head coach. He is also a product of and a believer in the Princeton concept of education through athletics. We will work with the Bengals to accommodate what works best for them and for Princeton through the end of their season."
Surace (pronounced "suh-RACE") had served as assistant offensive line coach for the Bengals for the last six years of his time with Cincinnati; prior to that, he served two seasons as an offensive staff assistant. In addition to his work with the line, he played a key role in the entire offensive staff's game preparation. In 2009, that offense helped the Bengals to a 10-6 record and a sweep of their AFC North rivals, including the defending Super Bowl champion Pittsburgh Steelers.
Under Surace's leadership, Western Connecticut advanced to the second round of the NCAA Division III Championship and won the Freedom Football Conference title in 2001; the win in the NCAA playoffs was the first in school history. In 2000, the Colonials won the Northeast Championship ECAC playoff game. In both of Surace's seasons, the team ranked in the top 25 nationally in the American Football Coaches Association poll.
Surace grew up in a coaching family. His father, Tony, was head coach for his high school football and baseball teams in Millville, N.J.

Nick Saban, University of Alabama
|
Friday March 2, 2012 – 8:30-10:00 PM
A man of vision who has a proven record of championship success, head coach Nick Saban has led the University of Alabama back to national prominence as one of the elite programs in college football. Entering his fifth spring in Tuscaloosa, his uncompromising dedication to excellence in every phase of the program has already resulted in the school's 13th national championship and the foundation has been set to yield long-term success for the Crimson Tide. A three-time National Coach of the Year, Saban has achieved resounding success as a head coach and has earned a reputation as an outstanding tactician, leader, organizer and motivator. Those qualities have sparked impressive turnarounds at every stop of his career. Saban's consistent approach and disciplined leadership are the reasons his teams are known for exhibiting grit, determination and resilience, often overcoming adversity to achieve victory.

Greg Schiano, Rutgers University
TOPIC: Rutgers Defense |
Saturday March 3, 2012—9:45 –11:00 AM
Entering his 11th year as the head football coach at Rutgers University, Greg Schiano has continued to make his mark in the annals of the Birthplace of College Football. Rutgers had advanced to a postseason bowl just once in 135 years of football, however, Schiano has made that infrequency a thing of the past as the Scarlet Knights continued their recent bowl tradition, accepting a bid to five bowls over the previous six seasons, including four straight bowl victories during the time span.
This is perhaps the best coaching job that Greg Schiano has done in his 11 years at Rutgers, taking a team that a year ago had among the worst offenses in the FBS and turning the Scarlet Knights into winners again. It hasn’t been pretty, in fact, it has often been ugly, but this is the finest coaching that Schiano has shown this program since he arrived here in December, 2000
