Aug 7, 2015 — A good hire. August 7, 2015 at 3:53 pm · Filed under Uncategorized. And tagged: Field hockey. It’s an unenviable task, replacing any legend. Very few people remember Phil Bengston, who replaced Vince Lombardi as head coach of the Green Bay Packers in the 60s. Even more forgettable was David Moyes, who replaced Alex Ferguson as head coach of Manchester United. And who remembers that Gene Bartow replaced John Wooden as men’s basketball coach at UCLA? 1 Comment ». Leave a Reply Cancel reply.
