Website History:

The idea behind Pro-Football-History.com began in September of 2011 while Stephen Juza was beginning grad school, studying Sociology at Wichita State University. Partnering with David Gilman in 2012, the website was born. The coaching data collected supported several academic presentations by Juza over the years. These projects include:

• "An Analysis of Pre-Head Coaching Careers: Does the NFL Need to Expand the Rooney Rule?", presented at the 2014 Midwest Sociological Society conference in Omaha, Nebraska
• "Diversity Initiatives and Network Advantage: Examining the Effects of the NFL's Rooney Rule", presented at the 2017 INSNA Sunbelt Conference in Beijing, China.
