Troxel was promoted to head coach in December 1973, after seven seasons at Idaho as an assistant under three head coaches, and several years as head coach of the track team. Before his move north to Moscow in 1967, he was very successful at the high school level at Borah in Boise. Troxel had previously declined the job in 1970 and days earlier in 1973, but was persuaded to reconsider by player support.
