He was also chairman of the board at Intuit and a living legend in Silicon Valley before he passed away last year.<\/p>\n<p>But did you know he also had a football trophy named after him\u2014The William V. Campbell Trophy?<\/p>\n<p>The trophy &#8212; known as \u201cthe Academic Heisman\u201d \u2013 is awarded each year by the National Football Foundation and recognizes a collegiate football player with the best combination of academic success, football performance and exemplary community leadership.<\/p>\n<p>At a recent inaugural leadership summit in honor of the Campbell trophy at Stanford University, Bill\u2019s presence loomed large. The Intuit-sponsored event drew 82 former nominees for the trophy and featured 44 speakers\u2014many of them tech leaders whose careers and lives Bill touched. Among those paying tribute to \u201cThe Coach,\u201d as Bill became known, was Intuit CEO Brad Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Brad spoke fondly of the larger-than-life mentor who welcomed him into the Intuit fold back in 2003\u2014a memorable encounter sprinkled with humor and Bill\u2019s famously colorful language. Brad highlighted Bill\u2019s high expectations of leaders and of the team members he surrounded himself with. He spoke of the lessons in courage that Bill passed along.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe loved to remind me that courage isn\u2019t the absence of fear, but rather the willingness to stand and face it!\u201d Brad said.<\/p>\n<p>For the National Football Foundation, the trophy summit provided a great opportunity to build relationships and connect nominees with some of the nation\u2019s top entrepreneurs and Silicon Valley CEOs. Among the tech giants Bill mentored were also Scott Cook, Apple\u2019s Steve Jobs, Google\u2019s Larry Page, Sergey Brin and Eric Schmidt, and Amazon\u2019s Jeff Bezos.<\/p>\n<p>Watch a video of the summit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZAVII-kWslw\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If Intuit had a hall of fame, Bill Campbell would have pride of place within it.
