Lead

• Delete for a time, too colloquial
• at which he served , you use "in which" later in the lead, which sounds better to me
• for 20 seasons, and was their all-time wins comma not needed

Early life and education

• Link pre-medical.

Coaching career

• Lappenbusch was hired by the school as assistant line coach in 1931., not immediately apparent to the layman that this is referencing American football
• mass produced should have a dash in it
• of the day including Frank Leahy of Notre Dame. comma before including

Personal life and death

• I'm not sure the first 2 sentences are encyclopedic. Anyway to merge them or summarize them in a more encyclopedia way? The way the yare written almost seem like "fun facts"
  • I deleted the second sentence. I slightly reworded the first one - I kind of like it, but I can remove it if you want.
    • This is fine. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 02:16, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Works

• No comments

Head coaching record

• Could you distinguish that it is football without using a section header? Typically we don't have a single sub-header like this.
  • As for as I'm aware that's how its done for college coaches of multiple sports, but I could change it to perhaps "Head football coaching record" if you'd like.
    • I think that makes sense since there are no other records in that section, just football. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 02:16, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
      • Done. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:18, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
• Add the text "Source:" before Ref #14
  • I'm sorry, I'm not exactly understanding what you're asking me to do - could you elaborate? I'm not exactly sure adding "Source:" after and died in September 1996 in Enumclaw, Washington would make sense.
    • I fixed it. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 02:16, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
