List of Bethel Threshers head football coaches

Otto Unruh was head coach for two separate time periods, first from 1929–1942 and then again from 1967–1969. He is credited with inventing the "T-Wing" offense.

The Bethel Threshers football program is a college football team that represents Bethel College in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference, a part of the NAIA. The team has had 21 head coaches since its first recorded football game in 1914.

The current coach is Martin Mathis.^[1] Mathis replaces James Dotson, who held the position for one season^[2] after the sudden resignation of Travis Graber on July 27, 2012.^[3]

As of the conclusion of the 2012 season, only two coaches (George Buhr and Jimmie Corns) managed career winning percentages above .500. Corns was the only one to do so across multiple seasons. Two coaches ended their tenures without a single win: Walter Miller in 1928 and James Dotson in 2012. Kent Rogers coached the most games (150), the most wins (69), and the most seasons (19) from 1979-1994.

Only two coaches achieved post-season play: Kent Rogers managed to bring a squad team to post-season play. Mike Moore took his 2006 team to the 2006 NAIA Football National Championship, losing in the first round to the Missouri Valley Vikings.

↑ Although the first Rose Bowl Game was played in 1902, it has been continuously played since the 1916 game, and is recognized as the oldest bowl game by the NCAA. "—" indicates any season prior to 1916 when postseason games were not played.^[4]
↑ A running total of the number of head coaches, with coaches who served separate tenures being counted only once. Interim head coaches are represented with "Int" and are not counted in the running total. "—" indicates the team played but either without a coach or no coach is on record. "X" indicates an interim year without play.
↑ Overtime rules in college football were introduced in 1996, making ties impossible in the period since.^[5]
↑ When computing the win–loss percentage, a tie counts as half a win and half a loss.^[6]
