As a coach first and then as the managing general partner, Al Davis turned the Oakland Raiders into one of the most successful franchises in professional football. Building on an unwavering philosophy that stressed a strong-armed quarterback, a powerful offensive line and a man-to-man defense, Davis’s teams played in five Super Bowls and, in an eight-year period beginning in 1976, won three of them. In Davis’s first 40 years with the franchise, the team suffered only seven losing seasons, won 12 division championships and played in 12 conference championship games. For many years, his teams were known for a physical, almost intimidating style of play. Davis also was renown for hiring the first African-American coach in the modern NFL and hiring a female as his team’s chief executive. Davis was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1992. He was inducted into the Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame in 2010, and his plaque can be found at SFO Gate 81.

The first Enshrinement Banquet was held in 1980 and honored Bay Area sports legends Joe DiMaggio, Willie Mays, Hank Luisetti, Ernie Nevers and Bill Russell.
