From
the Cradle of Coaches to the Grave of Coaches?
In 6 season as a college head coach, Terry
Hoeppner had never experienced a losing
season. That included 6 seasons at Miami
University. That streak ended after his first
season at Indiana which tends to be a final
resting place for college head coaching careers.
-
Terry
Hoeppner's first head coaching job was at
Eastbrook High School which is just north or
Muncie in Upland, Indiana.
-
Terry
Hoeppner's teams are 2-1 all time vs. Ball
State.
