Mentioned most prominently in Tallahassee circles were Terry Brennan, recently let out as head coach at Notre Dame; Hank Foldberg, offensive line coach at the University of Florida; Otto Graham, former Northwestern Uninversity and Cleveland Browns star quarterback, and Paul Amen, head coach at Wake Forest.
Nugent's switch to Maryland apparently caught FSU officials and boosters by surprise. At College Park, he will reportedly receive $15,000 annually under a four year contract, a house, an automobile and a television arrangement.
The 45 year old native of Lawrence, Ma, will take over his new job on January 15. He succeeds Tommy Mont, who resigned under fire last month after compiling a record of 11 wins, 18 defeats and one tie at Maryland during the past three years.
In a phone conversation with the Times-Union from Cincinnati, where he is attending the NCAA meeting, Nugent said:
"It was a marvelous opportunity that I could not pass up.
"My time at Florida State was the happiest I've ever had. It is with deep regret that I leave. My association at FSU always has been pleasant and I had never thought seriously of leaving Florida and especially Tallahassee."
FSU's president, Dr. Robert Strozier said last night that Nugent was not under a term contract at Florida State and was free to resign with approval of the president.
He said that the three year contract which Nugent signed in 1956 was abrogated in April, 1958, when the football coach was elevated to the dual post of athletic director. As athletic diector, Nugent was an administrative officer of the university and employed on a year to year basis.
"The offer of a long term contract was a major factor in my decision to go to Maryland," Nugent added.
He said he was enthusiastic about his new position.
"The school has a great background and the future looks bright," commented the ever optimistic Nugent.
In his six years at FSU, Nugent's teams compiled a record of 34 wins, 26 losses and one tie as they were brought along to an increasingly heavy schedule. Prior to 1947, FSU was a girls school, Florida State College for Women.
The 45 year old Nugent played college ball at Ithaca College in New York. He coached for four years at Virginia Military Institute before moving to FSU.
He was paid $13,000 a year and was up for a $1,000 raise when he decided to go to Maryland.
Dr. Strozier said he hated to lose Nugent, but FSU could not possibly meet the generous Maryland offer which also included a four year contract.
"Tom was not only a wonderful coach, but an excellent influence at FSU," the school president said. "We hate to see him go, but would not stand in his way since he considers the Maryland job a promotion."
Nugent stressed to the Times-Union that the negotiations among Maryland, FSU and himself were on a highly ethical level.
"The first I heard about it was when Dr. Strozier asked me to come to his home in Tallahassee last Friday," he explained, adding:
"He then told me that the Maryland president, Dr. Wilson Elkins, had asked permission from Florida State to talk contract with me. Dr. Strozier said I was a free agent, but I could stay at FSU forever if I wished.
"On Saturday I went to Atlanta to talk to Dr. Elkins. We agreed immediately, but I would like to stress that I would never have left FSU if the Maryland position had not offered so much opportunity for me and my family.
"I am happy that everything worked out so smoothly, that the negotiations were held in such a gentlemanly manner by the presidents of the two institutions."
Maryland's presidet, Dr. Elkins, said the Terrapins are "most fortunate in securing Tom Nugent." He said Nugent is an "exceptionally fine man" and his football is "original with and interesting style of play."
Nugent is credited with the development of the I formation, the so called "typewriter huddle" and the double quarterback formation.Five years ago he started the Florida State football clinic which last year attracted nearly a thousand coaches from all over the country.
His 1958 sqaud won seven games and lost three during the regular season, including wins over Tennessee and Miami and an invitation to the Blue Grass Bowl at Louisville, Ky, where it lost to Oklahoma State, 15-6.
At Maryland, Nugent will serve only as head football coach. William W. Cobey will continue as athletic director. Nugent will be given a free hand in selecting his assistants.
At Cincinnati, Nugent will confer with all the Maryland assistant coaches who are also at the convention.
Asked by the Times-Union if he would take with him any of his assistants at FSU, Nugent replied:
"Quite likely, I haven't given it too much thought yet, but I understand they will come with me if I ask them."
Maryland's 1959 schedule includes Syracuse, Navy, Texas, Clemson, North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia, Wake Forest, North Carolina State and Virginia.
"And one in the Orange Bowl next January 1st, I hope," Nugent chuckled.
In Tallahassee, WG Starry, Tallahassee attorney and president of the FSU Boosters, in a closed conference yesterday afternoon with Dr. Strozier, recommended that the school go after Terry Brennan or Otto Graham as Nugent's successor.
Contacted in Cincinnati, where he also is attending the NCAA meeting, Brennan said:
"I would be glad to talk with Florida State, as well as anyone else."
Graham, now in the insurance business in Cleveland, said he had been thinking seriously about going into the coaching business and would be glad to consider coming to Florida State. But he said he hadn't been contacted.
The youthful ex-Notre Dame coach and Graham both made favorable impressions as instructors at FSU's coaching clinic in recent years.
Dr. Strozier said he will forward the names of Brennan, Graham and any other potential candidates to the athletic committee. Under policy, the committee recommends and Dr. Strozier makes the nomination to the State Board of Control, which has the final say. Dr. Mode Stone, dean of the School of Education, is chairman of the athletic committee.
Starry said either Brennan or Graham would be acceptable to the Boosters, "but I personally doubt we could pay enough to get either one. We knew that a coach like Nugent would one day soon get an
offer from a major college that he could not turn down."
Florida and Florida State became arch rivals in a football series that started last fall with a Gator victory.
Moss, 32, a widely traveled "comer" in collegiate coaching ranks, has been backfield coach at Wisconsin the past two seasons. After graduating from Illinois, where he was an All-American quarterback, he served one year as an Illini assistant. He worked with Washington and LSU before joining Miami in 1954.
Moss was quick to point out yesterday that his traveling days are over. He told the Florida Times-Union, "Right now I plan to be at FSU the rest of my coaching career. After living in Florida, then moving away, you appreciate it more."
Dr. Robert M. Strozier, FSU president, announced in Tallahassee the appointment, which was recommended by the school's athletic committee following a midnight interview Tuesday with Moss.
Moss' salary terms were not disclosed pending final Board of Control approval Friday. But this is considered strictly routine. The youthful coach will not serve in the dual capacity of coach and athletic director as Nugent did. An athletic director will be chosen later.
Asked what formation he'd install at FSU, Moss replied, "How many are there?
"I lean towards a wide open game," he added. "We'll run and we'll throw. The trend nowadays is to move the ball and that is what we'll be trying to do.
"This is a great opportunity," the blond, curly haired Moss told newsmen. "I knew when I was at Miami that FSU was becoming one of the finest teams in the country."
Moss met with Nugent's assistants late yesterday, but declined to make any statement concerning his staff.
"I'll need a bit more time before deciding anything," he said.
The Oklahoma native is also undecided about the time of spring practice. "I hope to have it in mid-February, but I must get my staff set and I still have to sell my house in Madison and get located here."
Although Moss will spend plenty of time watching FSU films before deciding about team personnel, he mentioned that there's a chance he'll move running ace Fred Pickard, who sparked the Seminole offense from the fullback spot last fall, to a halfback slot.
The affable mentor added he might have a re-selling job to do on some of the high schoolers who signed to play under Nugent. Along that same line he added, "One of my big jobs will be in recruiting. To defeat a first rate team on the field, you've got to defeat them in recruiting. We'll range far and wide looking for talent."
A native of Tulsa, Ok, Moss played college football at the University of Tulsa and at Illinois. As a Tulsa tailback, he was on the Orange Bowl team that beat Georgia Tech, 26-12, in the 1945 Orange Bowl. As an Illinois T-quarterback, he directed a Rose Bowl team which routed UCLA, 45-14, in 1947.
Moss served two years in the Air Force between his playing time at Tulsa and Illinois. At Illinois, he was named All-Big Ten and made numerous All-Americas. He continued his playing with one year with the Green Bay Packers before returning to Illinois as an assistant.
While Moss was coaching the backfield at Miami under Andy Gustafson in 1954-55-56, the Hurricanes beat Florida 14-0, 7-6 and 20-7. In turn, his Wisconsin tutored backfield thrashed Miami 20-0 last
fall.
