Born Eugene Clifton Stallings, Jr. in Paris, Texas, USA in 1935, Gene became a standout athlete at Paris High School earning All District and All State honors in football and basketball.
Stallings won an athletic scholarship to Texas A&M University to play football. When Paul "Bear" Bryant became head coach of Texas A&M in 1954, Stallings became one of the legendary "Junction Boys" enduring ten days of endless practice in the scorching Texas summer. Stallings was one of only a handful of players to make it through the torturous boot camp type experience earning the trust and respect of Bryant.
The Junction Boys went 1 - 9 that season, but two years later, the team was undefeated and won the Southwest Conference. In 1956, Stallings was one of three co-captains of the Aggies squad along with Lloyd Hale and future NFL head coach Jack Pardee earning All-Southwest Conference honors.
After spending a year as a graduate assistant at Texas A&M, Bryant invited Stallings to join his staff as an assistant coach of the Crimson Tide at the University of Alabama in 1958. Stallings remained on the staff until 1964 when, at the age of 29, he was named the head coach of the Texas A&M Aggies. He coached the Aggies for seven season compiling a record of 27-45-1 and winning the Southwest Conference championship in 1967 culminating in a Cotton Bowl victory over friend and mentor Bear Bryant.
In 1972, he joined the staff of the Dallas Cowboys under head coach Tom Landry. He remained with the Cowboys for 14 seasons as an assistant, coaching in three Super Bowls and helping lead the Cowboys to a victory in Super Bowl XII over the Denver Broncos.
In 1986, Stallings was named the head coach of the St. Louis Cardinals football team. While coaching the Cardinals, Stallings' teams were known for their strong defenses, often ranking at or near the top of the NFC. Stallings compiled a 23-34-1 record with the Cardinals, impressive considering the turmoil surrounding the team's move to Phoenix and the chronic injuries to quarterback Neil Lomax. With five games remaining in the 1989 season, Stallings announced that he would resign, effective at the end of the season. Hours later, owner Bill Bidwill came back and fired Stallings. The move backfired on Bidwill, as the Cardinals lost all five of their remaining games to finish the year at 5-11.
