Tony Levine is one of the most popular and richest Head Coach who was born on October 28, 1972 in Saint Paul, Saint Paul, United States. Anthony Michael Levine (born October 28, 1972) is a former American football coach who last coached at Purdue as the special teams coordinator, co- offensive coordinator, and tight ends coach. He is a former head coach for the Houston Cougars football team. Levine now operates a Chick-fil-A restaurant in the Houston suburb of Missouri City, Texas.
After finishing his career at Minnesota, Levine joined the Minnesota Fighting Pike of the Arena Football League. However, his professional career only lasted the 1996 season, as the team folded thereafter. In his season with the Fighting Pike, he received 8 passes for a total of 83 yards and 1 touchdown.
He earned two masters degrees, one in physical education from Texas State in 1999 and one as an educational specialist in adult education from Auburn in 2003.
His next career move was to move to Auburn. Similar to his time spent at Texas State, Levine attended classes at the university, and eventually earned a degree at Auburn as an Educational specialist in adult education in 2003.
In 1996 Levine began his career as a coach, when he returned to his high school alma mater, Highland Park High School. He served as head coach of the freshmen team before he departed for Texas for a position at Texas State. During his time there, Levine rented an apartment at Pennington Funeral Home in Downtown San Marcos upon learning of the location from head coach Bob DeBesse. His monthly salary consisted of $976.00, and he did not own an automobile. Levine walked approximately one mile to campus each day.

While offered musical scholarships to the University of Rochester, Indiana University, University of North Texas and University of Wisconsin–Eau Claire, he did not pursue a musical degree.
In football, Levine was recruited by South Dakota State and Hamline, but did not receive any Division I-A scholarships. However, he received a call from a Minnesota assistant, Dave Spiegler, to invite him to walk-on as a receiver, which he accepted. Levine paid for his first two years at Minnesota independently. During the second game of the 1993 season against Indiana State, Levine substituted for injured teammate Omar Douglas. In that game, he caught seven passes for 121 yards. Head coach Jim Wacker then offered Levine a scholarship, and eventually made Levine a starter for the team in the 1994 and 1995 seasons. In his three years playing for the team, he was a two-time Academic All-Big Ten Team member.
A walk-on wide receiver for the Minnesota Golden Gophers under Jim Wacker, Levine became a three-year starter and was twice named to the Academic All-Big Ten team. After his graduation from Minnesota, Levine played arena football for the Minnesota Fighting Pike in 1996. Before coming to Houston, the St. Paul native coached at Texas State, Auburn, Louisiana Tech, Louisville and the NFL’s Carolina Panthers.

During Levine’s hiatus from coaching in the 2015 season, he thought about a career change; as ESPN journalist Adam Rittenberg noted in a 2018 story, Levine wished “to still impact others while spending more time with his wife and four young children. And, ideally, not leave Houston.” As part of this process, he called Eric Johnson, who had left the Iowa staff in 2014 to open a Culver’s restaurant in the Nashville area, at Johnson’s new restaurant, asking for advice. While he went back to coaching at that time, Levine eventually applied to become a Chick-fil-A franchisee, despite having had no restaurant experience. The company’s franchisee selection process is notoriously selective—the company receives more than 40,000 annual franchise inquiries, but opens only a little over 100 new locations each year. Nonetheless, the skills he practiced as a coach in leadership, recruiting, and player development transferred well to the company’s selection process, and he was approved to open a new location five minutes’ drive from his home.
