Best Coach You've Never Heard Of

Eddie Reese

Reese assumed the role of men's swimming and diving head coach for the Longhorns in 1978 and since then has led the University of Texas to nine NCAA titles and has been named NCAA Coach of the Year eight times! In addition to these exceptional accomplishments, he has served as men's head coach for America's Olympic squad in 1992, 2004, and 2008 and has mentored and trained most all of the big names in USA swimming (too many to name here).
