MIAMI — Bill Arnsparger, the Miami assistant coach who directed the "No-Name Defense" that helped the Dolphins win Super Bowl titles in 1973 and 1974, died Friday. He was 88.
The Dolphins confirmed Arnsparger's death. The team didn't provide a cause of death.
Arnsparger left the Dolphins after the 1974 Super Bowl to coach the New York Giants, going 7-28 before he was fired after an 0-7 start in 1976. He returned to Don Shula's Miami staff and remained with the Dolphins until 1983, helping them reach another Super Bowl.
Arnsparger was LSU's head coach from 1984-86, leading the Tigers to two Southeastern Conference titles in three season before leaving to become Florida's athletic director.
