In the thrilling world of college football, a coach's call sheet is a sacred artifact, guarded by the revered few who hold its power. Larry Carris, the legendary former head coach of the Mount Union Purple Raiders, stands as a beacon of success with the highest winning percentage in college football history. His coaching philosophy revolves around loyalty, kindness, and generosity, shaping not just players but future coaches who emerge from his coaching tree, including names like Matt Campbell and Tommy Manning.
Carris, affectionately known as El, spent nearly three decades at the helm of the Raiders, instilling values of character, passion for football, and academic excellence in his recruits. His emphasis on putting players first and following the PFP approach - players, formations, plays - has left a lasting impact on those who played under him, like Nick Serani. Serani fondly recalls the lessons learned from Carris, from his playing days to his coaching style, highlighting the enduring influence of a great mentor.
Despite retiring from coaching, Carris remains deeply connected to Mount Union and the sport he loves, showing unwavering support for his former players who have now stepped into coaching roles themselves. His dedication to the game and to nurturing young talent is a testament to his enduring legacy in the world of college football. As the echoes of past victories and lessons learned reverberate through the annals of football history, Larry Carris stands tall as a symbol of excellence, loyalty, and the true spirit of the game.
