Pat Collins is the program's all-time leader in games coached (92), years coached (8), and wins (57) while leading the Indians to two Southland Conference championships and one national championship in what is now the Football Championship Subdivision. Only two other head coaches, Dave Roberts and Charlie Weatherbie, have led the program to conference titles. Roberts remains the team's all-time leader in winning percentage (.661). In terms of winning percentage, the least successful coach in program history was Bobby Keasler, with a record of 8-28 (.222) over four seasons. Todd Berry is the only coach to lead the Warhawks to a winning season and a postseason bowl in the Football Bowl Subdivision. In 2012, Berry's Warhawks finished the season 8–5 and were invited to the Independence Bowl, where they were defeated by Ohio.
