Inducting the Class of 2026

Larry Coker

Larry Coker was hired by the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2009 as head coach to build its new Roadrunners football program from scratch. He came from the University of Miami where he won a national championship in 2001, his first year as coach. Coker brought immediate national recognition and visibility to the university, and he engineered one of the most successful startup programs of the modern era. Following a practice season in 2010, UTSA set an NCAA modern startup program record when 56,743 fans filled the Alamodome on Sept. 3, 2011, to watch the Roadrunners defeat Northeastern State, Coker’s alma mater. In his second season, he guided the team to an 8-4 record, finishing fourth behind three bowl-eligible teams in the Western Athletic Conference (WAC). UTSA debuted as a member of Conference USA in 2013 and finished 7-5 against a schedule that included seven bowl teams. Coker retired in 2016 after five seasons in which he compiled 26 wins. Over his career, he had a record of 86-47 with four bowl appearances.

James Feigen

James Feigen is a highly accomplished competitive swimmer whose career spans elite high school, collegiate and international success. At Winston Churchill High School, he won a silver medal and two gold medals in the UIL 5A 50-yard freestyle, as well as a silver and a gold medal in the 100-yard freestyle. He also won a gold medal in the 400-yard freestyle relay. At the state championship in his senior year, he set national records in the 100-yard and 50-yard freestyle races and anchored his 400-yard freestyle relay team to a gold medal, securing the 5A state title for Winston Churchill. He was named the National Boys High School Swimmer of the Year. Feigen continued his dominance in the pool at the University of Texas at Austin, earning 18 Big 12 Conference gold medals, 24 NCAA All-American honors and three NCAA championships. A member of the USA National team from 2009-2016, Feigen won Olympic medals in back-to-back Games, silver in the 4×100-meter freestyle relay at the 2012 London Olympics and gold in the same event at the 2016 Rio Olympics, along with a gold medal at the 2012 FINA World Swimming Championships.

Frank Harris

Frank Harris is one of the most pivotal figures in UTSA football history, playing seven seasons as quarterback with the Roadrunners. His career included four winning seasons, two Conference USA championships and four bowl appearances. He was also named the 2022 Conference USA MVP and earned first-team all-conference honors twice and set over 30 program records during his career. Harris attended Samuel Clemens High School in Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD and was a standout athlete, playing both football and basketball. He was a four-year starting quarterback, earning all-state honors as a junior and leading the team to its deepest playoff run since 2006.

The 1971 Robert E. Lee High School Football Team

The San Antonio Robert E. Lee High School football team captured the Texas Class 4A state championship in 1971, defeating Wichita Falls 28–27 in the first high school football game ever played at Texas Stadium. The game was a rematch of the 1969 state title game, which Wichita Falls had won, adding extra significance to Lee’s victory. The championship game was a thriller, with Lee trailing 27–21 late in the fourth quarter. Quarterback Tommy Kramer, who would become a San Antonio legend and an NFL standout, engineered a dramatic comeback, completing several key passes before kicking the game-winning extra point following a late touchdown. That season, Kramer set a single-season state record with 2,588 passing yards and 28 touchdown passes. Wide receiver Richard Osborne was another standout, setting a state record with 86 receptions for 1,429 yards. The 1971 season proved unforgettable for both San Antonio Lee and the city, as the team finished 14–0–1 and claimed the school’s first state championship.
