	College Football Hall of Fame
		While coaching at the University of Chicago (1933-1939), Clark Shaughnessy became intrigued by the pro-T being used by George Halas and the Chicago Bears.
		Shaughnessy earned Coach of the Year honors for his 1940 efforts.
		Shaughnessy was born March 6, 1892, in St. Cloud, Minnesota; he died May 15, 1970, in Santa Monica, California.

	History of Pro Football in Buffalo
		Shaughnessy’s system required an intelligent quarterback who could throw accurately and handle the ball deftly--not exactly a common sort of athlete, but easier to find than the triple-threat tailback of the single wing.
		While Shaughnessy’s modification of the T formation immediately created a much improved running attack, its biggest long-term effect on pro football was the development of the modern passing game.
		Shaughnessy thought that Hirsch could be a great receiver, but the Rams already had two fine ends in Tom Fears and Bob Shaw.

	History of Pro Football in Buffalo
		But it is clear that Clark Shaughnessy and Tom Landry were responsible for most of the defensive ideas of the late 1950s and the early 1960s.
		Shaughnessy developed the 4-3 over, in which the weakside defensive tackle played over the center, while the strongside tackle and end moved somewhat to the outside, and the 4-3 under, in which the weakside defensive tackle played opposite the center.
		Shaughnessy, who liked to make things complicated, created a variety of rotating zone defenses that were meant to keep the quarterback off balance by putting defenders where he didn’t expect them to be, often resulting in sacks or interceptions.

	Printable Version
		Clark Shaughnessy was the Bill Walsh of his era, a consummate tactician who literally invented the modern passing game.
		Shaughnessy had developed a variation on what would later be called the T-formation and, having served as an adviser to the Bears in 1939, had explained his idea to Halas.
		Later, Shaughnessy would split the end wide on the line of scrimmage, giving the quarterback yet another option and the Split-T was born.

		Sipowicz and Clark search for two burglars who terrorized a retired cop and his wife; Medavoy and Jones assist an author who wrote a book on how to avoid paying income taxes; and Jones deals with Michael’s father.
		Sipowicz thinks Shaughnessy’s instinct is to handle the case himself, but Shaughnessy maintains that such is not the case, and he and his wife have been thinking about relocating to Florida.
		Sipowicz and Clark show Shaughnessy a mug shot of J.J. Flaherty, whose fingerprints were found on the frame the Patton letter was in.

		At the time of George's emergence as a possible superstar, the Bears' defensive fortunes were handled by the revered football tactician, Clark Shaughnessy.
		Assistant coach Shaughnessy certainly taught George a huge amount of defensive strategy, it is also true that Bill was an ideal pupil, many times plotting Shaughnessy-type maneuvers in advance of his daily lesson.
		That year, Shaughnessy retired from the Bears' coaching staff and, to the surprise of almost everyone, George was relieved of his defensive signal calling responsibilities.

		Potsy Clark, the Portsmouth coach, exploded, furiously arguing that Nagurski had not been five yards behind the line of scrimmage for the pass as required by the rules.
		Certainly Shaughnessy shared his innovative concepts with Brumbaugh -- even though their convivial habits were worlds apart: Shaughnessy was a dour and eccentric Puritan whose idea of a night on the town was drinking a milkshake at an ice cream parlor.
		Luckman, though giving primacy to Shaughnessy in creating the concept and use of counterplays, believed that the entire coaching staff, all devoted to the Bears, authored the redesigned T that he directed.

		Coach Clark Shaughnessy listed it as one of the 12 greatest performances he had seen.
		Shaughnessy described it vividly, writing: "Tipton was a one-man show.
		The game was played on ice and snow at Durham, North Carolina; before a record crowd, and I doubt that anybody ever kicked a ball more skillfully or consistently than the grim, square-jawed Tipton that afternoon.

	Stanford Magazine > November/December 2002 > Class Notes
		WHEN HEAD FOOTBALL COACH Clark Shaughnessy arrived at Stanford in 1940, he brought with him a strange new offense his players had never seen: the so-called T-formation.
		It required the quarterback to stand directly behind the center on the line of scrimmage—instead of several yards back as players in the “single-wing” formation had done—and to be the primary ball handler on each play.
		While he blossomed as a quarterback under Shaughnessy, Albert also was an accomplished defensive back and kicker.

		In 1986, Smithsonian magazine revealed that Shaughnessy had based his revolutionary strategies on a Nazi general's field maneuvers.
