Dick Enright

Dick Enright (born c. 1935) is a former American football player and coach. He served as the head football coach at the University of Oregon from 1972 to 1973, compiling a record of 6–16. Enright attended the University of Southern California.

From 1970 to 1972, Enright served as offensive line coach for the Oregon Ducks, under head coach Jerry Frei. As head coach, Enright helped develop quarterback Dan Fouts. After leading the Ducks to 4–7 and 2–9 seasons, Enright was fired by Oregon in January 1974, with the university buying out the remainder of his five-year contract. During his tenure as head coach, Enright created the Daisy Ducks, an Oregon support club aimed at women. He claimed he created the organization because he was tired of complaints that men could not get their wives to attend football games because they did not understand the sport; the club proved popular.

After leaving Oregon, Enright was hired to coach the offensive line of the Southern California Sun of the short-lived professional World Football League. After the league folded in the middle of the 1975 season, Enright moved on to coach the offensive line coach of the San Francisco 49ers.

Enright later became head coach at Capistrano Valley High School, a public school in Mission Viejo, California. During this time, Enright's old USC alum and friend Marv Marinovich decided to have his son, quarterback Todd Marinovich transfer to Capistrano Valley to play under Enright. Todd, already a highly touted high school player, flourished and broke the all-time Orange County passing record and later the national high school passing record with 9,914 yards, including 2,477 his senior year.
