Bill George

Bill George is an American former football coach. He served as the head football coach at the United States Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut from 1999 to 2019, compiling a record of 75–126. His two best seasons were 2006 and 2007, with the Bears making the New England Football Conference (NEFC) championship in both years. George made minor headlines in October 2013 for washing his players underwear during the federal government shutdown. After the Coast Guard Academy defeated United States Merchant Marine Academy in 2014, George jumped into the Thames River. On November 12, 2019, George announced he was retiring from coaching in order "to do some things."

George is the author of a book "Home Fields," published in 2023, which is part memoir and part historical fiction.
