Before the season
In the prior year of 1919, coach Clark Shaughnessy guided Tulane to a then-school record of seven consecutive wins,[2] and had transformed Tulane into a competitor among Southern collegiate teams.[3]
Though he was famous for later using the T formation, at Tulane Shaughnessy employed the single wing. Shaughnessy also introduced to Tulane the Minnesota shift, an innovation created by his former coach Henry L. Williams.[4]
Germany Schulz was hired to take over duties as athletic director.[5]
