Tommy West was D coordinator for a while. Seems like a future Baylor coach was also a coordinator.

Chuck Reedy was the coordinator that went to Baylor as head coach.

Didn't they call Bill -"Brother" Oliver?
I believe he was an Alabama guy too.

I pulled out my Orange Bowl program and the pictures and list of Assistant Coaches does not mention coordinators. Tom Harper was Assistant Head Coach and DL coach. Nelson Stokley was QB coach and Chuck Reedy was RB coach so one of them probably called the plays.

Don't recall anybody being called that until maybe 1983 or so.
