Jack Siedlecki Biography

Jack Siedlecki is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on July 23, 1951 in Johnstown, Johnstown, United States. Siedlecki was born in 1951 in Johnstown, New York. His father, John Siedlecki, was the son of Polish immigrants and served as the head football coach at Johnstown High School for 20 years and later served as the school’s principal.

In January 1988, Siedlecki was hired as the head football coach at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. In five years at Worcester, Siedlecki compiled a 36–11–1 record. His 1990 team went 8–0–1, and his 1992 team compiled a 9–1 record. The 1992 team also made the school’s first appearance in the NCAA Division III playoffs and won the inaugural title of the Freedom Football Conference. Siedlecki was chosen as the 1992 AFCA Kodak District I Coach of the Year.

In January 1993, Siedleck was hired as the head football coach at Amherst College. At the time, he said that he had “a great deal of pride” in the winning program he had built at Worcester but added, “Personally and professionally this is a great opportunity. Amherst is one of the finest schools in the country and it will truly be an honor to work there.”

In December 1996, Siedlecki was hired as the 32nd head coach of the Yale Bulldogs football team. He replaced Carm Cozza, the winningest coach in Ivy League football history. Yale’s football team had finished 2–8 in 1995 and had not had a winning season since 1991 when Siedlecki took over. Siedlecki noted, “I’ve been at good academic schools. I want to be with the best student athletes. It’s fun to coach guys who have that kind of intellect. I like those kinds of guys.” At the news conference announcing his hiring, Siedlecki responded to questions suggesting he had been a second choice to Dick Jauron:

After graduating from Union College, Siedlecki worked as an assistant football coach for 12 years at the University of Albany (1976–1979), Wagner College (1980), and Lafayette College (1981–1987). He began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Albany and later noted that his responsibilities there were unlike any other program: “Everybody who walks out of here is exposed to what it takes to be a college coach.” He recalled that the assistants at Albany earned $2,500 to $3,000 a year, and five coaches shared one house for which they paid $225 per month in rent. To support himself, Siedlecki also taught at a local Catholic elementary school, worked as a building supervisor three nights a week and coached junior varsity baseball. After one year at Wagner, Siedlecki spent seven years at Lafayette and served as both defensive and offensive coordinator. Siedlecki and Harvard head coach Tim Murphy were roommates as assistant coaches at Lafayette.
