Early life and playing career

Broyles was born in Bremerton, Washington and grew up in Mulberry, Kansas where he played eight-man football. He played on the defensive and offensive lines at Pittsburg State and graduated from the school in 1970.

Coaching career

From 1970 to 1971, Broyles was an assistant coach at Bishop Carroll Catholic High School in Wichita, Kansas. He received an M.A. from Pittsburg in 1972 after serving as a graduate assistant with the football team. In 1973, he was coach of Stockton High School in Stockton, Missouri. He was a defensive coordinator for the University of Missouri-Rolla from 1974 to 1982. He was an assistant coach at Miami High School in Miami, Oklahoma from 1983 to 1985. He returned to Rolla as defensive coordinator in 1986 and 1987.^[2]

In 1988, Broyles was an assistant coach at Pittsburg. In his first season as head coach of Pittsburg in 1990, his team went 10–0 in the regular season and won two games in the Division playoffs. In his second season in 1991 he led the college to a 13–1–1 record and a national championship. He was named Division II Coach of the Year.^[2]

The powerhouse performance of Pittsburg led to a $5.8 million overhaul of Carnie Smith Stadium in 2000, a further $2.5 million renovation to the west end in 2006, including the addition of eight luxury boxes and the addition of a $1.7 million video board in 2007—the biggest in Division II at the time.

In 2008, he was named Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year. Broyles also plays the role as a husband, father, and grandfather. His wife, Helen, is a local Realtor. He has three sons, Scott, Kyle and Mark. Kyle died in 2008. Scott and his wife Bryna have three daughters, Ashley, Nicole and Jenna.

After previously announcing on November 5, 2009 his intention to stay on as head coach, on December 2, 2009 Broyles announced his retirement.^[3]
