Donald Dobes,
Linebacker Coach since 1994

"Being a part of Princeton football has been especially rewarding to me because it has allowed me to recruit, coach, and become a part of the lives of some outstanding young men. It's all about relationships, and the ones that I've formed while at Princeton will be with me forever."

Hank Towns,
Head Equipment Manager, 32 years, Retired

"Princeton Football is unique in that the program blends rigorous academics with the love of the game. In my years here I have been impressed with loyalty, resolve and character of the players and coaches. The Princeton Football Program produces great players, but more importantly great men. I've made friendships here that I wouldn't exchange for a million dollars."

Chisom Opara,
Former Player, 2002 Team Co-Captain

"Being a football player at Princeton has meant being part of one of the most prestigious and storied traditions that this country has. But more than that, it has given me the chance to meet and play with some of the best people I've ever known."

Professor Robert Tignor,
Academic-Athletic Fellow

"It has been a special pleasure to be associated with the Princeton Football team since Roger Hughes became the head coach. I had the opportunity to travel with the team to New Haven, Cambridge and Osaka, Japan and see three of the tensest games imaginable, all decided by a field goal in the last few seconds. What was impressive in those games was the high spirit of the team members. They played hard, they played fair and they never gave up. In all three games they accepted the outcome with praise for their opponents and enthusiasm for the good play of their teammates."
