Philip Heckman Arbuckle (September 6, 1883 – June 11, 1932)[1] was a college football coach at Louisiana Tech University and Rice University. From 1912 to 1923, he coached at Rice, where he compiled a 51–25–8 record. His only losing season at Rice came in 1923, which makes him the most prolific football coach in school history. His 1919 team went 8–1, to mark his best season. In 1924, he coached at Louisiana Tech, where he compiled a 1–6–1 record.
Arbuckle died in Houston, Texas on June 11, 1932 of a pulmonary embolism caused by subacute bacterial endocarditis.[2]
Rice University
Phillip Arbuckle served as Rice University's first athletic director and football coach in 1912.[3] His teams played against local high schools until Rice joined the Southwest Conference in 1914.[4] In his tenure, Arbuckle would also serve as the heads of the baseball, basketball and track teams, as well as teach English and History. He was succeeded by John W. Heisman in 1924 and inducted into the Rice Athletic Hall of Fame in 1975.[5]
