William "Lone Star" Dietz
- Induction:
- 1983
Truly a legend in his own time, William “Lone Star” Dietz had a fantastic career as Washington State’s football coach from 1915-17. His teams posted a 17-2-1 record with 15 shutouts. In his inaugural year, he guided WSC to the Rose Bowl and a 14-0 shutout of Ivy League foe Brown. That team was 7-0 and allowed just one touchdown and one field goal all year. A year later, WSC was 4-2 and his 1917 team finished 6-0-1 while yielding three points to opponents, a field goal in the second game of the season. In 1919, as coach of the Mare Island (Calif.) Marines, Dietz returned to the Rose Bowl against the Great Lakes Naval Training Station. He was a teammate at Carlisle College of the immortal Jim Thorpe and was coached by Glenn “Pop” Warner. Dietz is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame and the State of Washington Sports Hall of Fame.
