Richard Maloney (born July 21, 1950) is an American football coach that served as head football coach at the University of Chicago from 1994 to 2013. A five-time University Athletic Association Coach of the Year, Maloney guided the Maroons to four UAA championships and notched a 94–82 overall record.[1] His .534 winning percentage ranks second all-time at Chicago, trailing only the legendary Amos Alonzo Stagg.[2] During his tenure, Maloney built a program recognized for not only athletic emphasis but academic excellence.[3]
