Leo Robert "Dutch" Meyer[1] (January 15, 1898 – December 3, 1982) was an American football, basketball, and baseball player and coach.

A native of Ellinger, Texas, Meyer prepped at Waco High School under coach Paul Tyson.

Upon graduation in 1922 with a degree in geology, Meyer played one summer in the minor leagues for the Cleveland Indians organization.

Meyer helped invent the modern passing game after he saw Baugh playing in a sandlot league and enrolled him at TCU.

All the coaches I had in the pros, I didn't learn a damn thing from any of `em compared with what Dutch Meyer taught me.

"[3]Meyer's overall coaching style and philosophy is best summed up in a quote still given to TCU athletes before they go out to compete - "Fight 'em until hell freezes over.

In 1961 the university named the recently constructed basketball facility, Daniel-Meyer Coliseum, in honor of Coach Meyer and Milton E. Daniel, a TCU trustee.

There is currently an up-scale burger joint on University Drive right next to campus called "Dutch's" that is dedicated to the former TCU coach.
