Sixteen years later, Buffalo called upon Jim Wilson to coach again. Wilson coached from 1950-1951 becoming Buffalo's only coach to coach two non-consecutive terms as head coach. Wilson performed better than his first stint, his 1950 team scored more points in their first four games than Wilson's previous 14 games as coach. Wilson went 9-7 in two seasons however this was a disappointing two seasons after Peele went 15-3 and Clair went 12-4-1 in the previous 4 years.

After his first stint Wilson was tied for 5th on the UB coach wins list. After his second coaching stint, he finished tied for 3rd with 12 wins, which is now tied for 8th most wins by a coach in UB history.
