After a four-year playing career at St. John's, Gallagher earned a tremendous reputation as a coach at Niagara University. He was given his nickname “Taps” in the 1920s, just before the “Wonder Five” days, when getting the center tap after each basket was vital. Gallagher also coached high school basketball in New York.
