John McKay is remembered by some to be a college football Hall of Fame head coach that won four National Championships.

Others recall he was the very first head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team that lost their first 26 games.

Dick Vermeil called McKay “Dial-a-Quote,” having faced him as a head coach of UCLA and the Philadelphia Eagles.
