Pacific University coach Keith Buckley could give advice on how to build a football program from scratch to the Cleveland Browns and UH-Manoa, both still searching to find a flashlight to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
The Boxers, a Division III school from Forest Grove, Ore., eliminated football in 1992 and reinstated it in 2010. They struggled in their first three years, going 4-23, including 0-9 in their return season. In the first two years, they were outscored 770-332.
Then Pacific had three consecutive winning seasons, including a 6-4 record and fourth place in the Northwest Conference in 2015.
