He is currently the head coach of Florida Atlantic University and has previously held head coaching positions with the University of Oklahoma (1995), University of Louisville (1985-1994), University of Miami (1979-1983), and the Baltimore Colts of the NFL in 1973. He has also worked extensively as an assistant coach at the pro level, including being a part of the staff of the undefeated 1972Miami Dolphins.

Schnellenberger was an All American as a player at the University of Kentucky and worked as an assistant coach there under head coach Blanton Collier.

He coached Miami to a National Championship in 1983, defeating Nebraska in the 50th Orange Bowl. In all he has 20 years of head coaching experience and a 126-98-3 record at the college level. Following his championship at the University of Miami, Schnellenberger would depart for the USFL where he would become head coach for what was to be a South Florida team (a relocated Washington Federals franchise). That job would never materialize and Schnellenberger would never coach a USFL game.

While at the University of Louisville, he took a moribund program on the verge of being dropped to 1-AA status to two bowl victories, one of which being an unprecedented 34-7 thrashing of the Alabama Crimson Tide in the 1991 Fiesta Bowl, capping a 10-1-1 season and the school's first-ever national ranking (11).
