Autographs of Barry Switzer
Barry Layne Switzer (born October 5, 1937) is an American former college and professional football coach. He served for 16 years as head football coach at the University of Oklahoma and four years as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). He won three national championships at Oklahoma, and led the Cowboys to win Super Bowl XXX against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He has one of the highest winning percentages of any college football coach in history, and is the second of only three head coaches to win both a college football national championship and a Super Bowl: the others are his Cowboys predecessor Jimmy Johnson and Pete Carroll with the Seattle Seahawks.
Switzer was born on October 5, 1937, in Crossett, Arkansas, to parents Frank Mays Switzer and Mary Louise Switzer. In early February 1954, Switzer and his younger brother Donnie were home in rural Ashley County, Arkansas with their mother and father when it was raided by the Arkansas Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission and the Arkansas State Police, which found untaxed contraband liquor. Frank made bond but was later tried and convicted of illegal trafficking in alcohol for purposes of resale ("bootlegging"). He was sentenced to five years in prison but the conviction was reversed on appeal. Frank did serve five months of the term and therefore missed seeing Barry play his senior season of high school football.
Switzer and his brother Donnie were at home with their mother on August 26, 1959, when she took her own life with a .38 caliber pistol on the back porch. On November 16, 1972, after they each commenced professional careers, their father was murdered by a jealous lover.
