1907

Joseph George Gembis (September 29, 1907 – July 5, 1969), sometimes known by the nickname "Dynamite Joe", was an American football player and coach.

Gembis was born in Vicksburg, Michigan, in 1907.

He attended Vicksburg High School.

1927

Gembis played college football at the University of Michigan from 1927 to 1929 as a fullback and placekicker.

Highlights of Gembis' playing career at Michigan included the following:

1929

The Detroit Free Press in November 1929 noted: "Gembis' presence in the blue line up has been invaluable. His place kicking has been an indispensable factor in the Wolverine attack. Without the service of his productive toe, it is extremely doubtful if Michigan's record would be studded with any major victories."

1930

Gembis received his bachelor of arts degree from Michigan in 1930.

In 1930, Gembis played semi-professional football as a fullback and placekicker for the Ironton Tanks in Ironton, Ohio.

The Cincinnati Enquirer in November 1930 wrote: "Dynamite Joe Gembis, Tank fullback, is without a doubt the finest line-smasher to ever show at Redland Field."

Gembis spent one year as a football coach at Chesapeake High School in Ohio.

1931

His 1931 Chesapeake team compiled a 6–4–1 record.

1932

In July 1932, he was hired as the head coach at College of the City of Detroit (later renamed Wayne University in 1934 and later Wayne State University).

He remained in that position for 14 years.

1934

His 1934 team compiled a 7–1 record, and from 1934 to 1937 his teams went 23–7.

Gembis was married to Florence Ruby Smith in June 1934.

1935

They had three children, Douglas (born March 1935), Ann, and Charles (born March 1946).

In his later years, Gembis continued to work as an associate professor of health and physical education at Wayne State.
