This month AFM continues its tradition of selecting its choices for the 2003 Coordinator of the Year awards. Normally, the task of announcing a list is difficult because of the many outstanding programs – at all levels – around the country; what made this year’s selections more difficult was the research involved which indicated statistics were only one measure of success. While statistics were important, many intangibles-such as player/coach relationships and improvement from the previous year – were factors as well in the overall process of choosing AFM’s Coordinators of the Year.

I would like to personally thank the following people for their help and guidancein the overall selection process: David Srinivasan (NFL); Richard Scott (D-IA);Tony Moss of The Sports Network (D-IAA); Brandon Misener (d2football.com); PatColeman (d3football.com); Jason Dannelly (NAIAfootball.net); and Amy Tagliareniof the NJCAA Staff.
