Jimmy Feix, the all-time winningest coach in the history of Western Kentucky University football, was named to the 2020 College Football Hall of Fame ballot, the National Football Foundation announced this week.
The late Feix is the only football coach in WKU’s history to eclipse the 100-win mark, amassing a career record of 106-56-6 (.649) in his 16 years as the program’s head coach from 1968-83. He was added to the ballot for his career as a coach as he led the Hilltoppers to the NCAA Division II championship game in its first year of existence, 1973, before again taking WKU to the championship in 1975.
