Coach Dooley, while a grad. asst. at Auburn, gave me a practice football that had "API" stamped on the side. I believe that my brother may still have it.

You don't want to misplace that ball.

While he did wander through the tumultuous darkness in his undergraduate days, Coach Dooley eventually saw the light and seeked redemption within the confines of the Classic City.

We welcomed him into Bulldawg Nation with open arms and were rewarded with a trip to the mountaintop with the best RB to ever play CFB.

All Honor to His Name

He and Coach Eaves would come to Tuscaloosa for the HS all-star games every year and Coach Eaves would stay with my uncle. Coach Eaves was one of the finest people I've ever met.

Think about it, he was the last UGA HC to accomplish anything.
