Long-time Penn football coach Al Bagnoli retired at the end of the 2014 season, ending his 23-year tenure as the winningest coach in Penn history. But he may not be done just yet. Bagnoli, 62, had spoken about moving into a role within the Penn Athletics administration after retirement, but, according to Mike Jensen of the Philadelphia Inquirer, he is in talks to take over as Columbia’s head coach.

As a Florida native, Phil Parchment hasn’t had the pleasure of playing football on the frozen tundra of the northeast.

Bernie Lemonick, one of the most illustrious players in Penn football history and an assistant coach with the program throughout the late 1950s, has died.

When head coach Ray Priore took over Penn Football at the beginning of December, it gave him the opportunity to look internally at the program he’s been coaching at for the past 28 years. Late last week, Priore announced the hiring of offensive coordinator John Reagan, who had previously worked in the same role at Kansas and Rice.

For Ray Priore, the name on the door next to his new office — a room now occupied by the new defensive coordinator — still bears his name.

But say what you want about the lack of titles — Penn Athletics has plenty to learn from and build off of the fall that was.

New Penn football head coach Ray Priore didn't waste too much time to find his replacement as defensive coordinator.

Columbia football coach Pete Mangurian resigned on Friday, Columbia President Lee Bollinger said in a press release.

Four days after officially taking over the reins of Penn football, head coach Ray Priore hasn't waited long to put his own stamp on the program. With the defensive coordinator position vacant after Priore's promotion, Penn Athletics has confirmed that current Albany defensive coordinator Bob Benson will fill the same position with the Red and Blue. "I'm thrilled to add someone of Bob's experience to our staff," Priore said in a statement.

The way Penn football celebrated at midfield after defeating Cornell, giving retiring coach Al Bagnoli a ceremonial Gatorade shower, you’d almost have thought the Quakers somehow managed to capture a 10th Ivy title for their leader on some sort of technicality.

In the end though, Penn would prevail over the Big Red, 34-26, behind a career day for senior receiver Spencer Kulcsar in his final collegiate game.

Both teams had their share of turnovers, and neither could manage to establish a true lead. At the half, Penn ended up on top 21-18.

For as much as he’s loathed talking about it, the time has finally come: Al Bagnoli’s last game is this Saturday. And with both Penn football and Cornell struggling this season, the action on the field will likely be secondary.

It sure would have been nice to send off the program’s winningest coach with another victory in his final game at Franklin Field, but Penn football showed a lot to be proud of in its loss to Harvard.

Despite being limited in stretches by the Quakers' defense, Harvard managed to score on its three subsequent possessions to clinch the win, 34-24, and a share of its second consecutive Ivy League title

While Saturday will be all about Al Bagnoli, who will be coaching for the last time at Franklin field, the coach on the opposite sideline deserves his fair share of recognition.

After 23 years, it's time for Al Bagnoli to say goodbye to Franklin Field.
