The 2010 Dallas Vigilantes season was the inaugural season for the franchise in the Arena Football League (AFL). With many players of the old Desperados team that put up a 15–1 record in recent years returning, Dallas fans had high hopes for the Vigilantes carrying on with the Desperados' success. However, after a 1–5 start and an altercation with one of his players, head coach Rich Ingold was fired, and replaced by James Fuller for the remainder of the season.[1] Eventually Clint Dolezel was named as head coach for the 2011 season[2] after the Vigilantes went 2–8 in their final ten games to finish the 2010 season 3–13, despite winning their last game of the season on the road, 62–56 against the Bossier–Shreveport Battle Wings. Two of Dallas's three wins that season came on the road.
In the long run, the Vigilantes finished second-to-last in points per game with 50, only more than the Utah Blaze, who averaged 46.4 points a game. Dallas also shot themselves in the foot with 150 penalties, fifth most in the league behind the Milwaukee Iron, (193) Tampa Bay Storm, (186)Oklahoma City Yard Dawgz, (168) and Orlando Predators. (164)[3] The defense gave up the third most in the league at 57.5 points a game, better than only Bossier-Shreveport and Utah.[4]
The team was coached by Rich Ingold for the first six games before being fired on May 24. Defensive coordinator James Fuller was promoted to interim head coach.[5] The Vigilantes will play their home games at American Airlines Center. The Vigilantes missed the playoffs after finishing with a 3–13 record and placing 7th in the American Conference.
