One of the coaches with the most wins in NCAA history, Vince Dooley has racked up a list of honors more impressive than even the famed last minute 72-yard run by Lindsay Scott — the run that gave the University of Georgia Bulldogs a victory over the University of Florida Gators and led them straight to a national championship in 1980.
Two times, Coach Dooley was named NCAA National Coach of the Year (1980 and 1982) and seven times, he took home the honor of SEC Coach of the Year.
The Alabama native, who made Georgia his home in 1964, coached the Georgia Bulldogs to 201 victories during his 25 years as head coach and took Bulldog teams to 20 bowl games. For 15 years after his retirement from active coaching, he remained at Georgia as the school’s Athletic Director.
Not surprisingly, based on these accomplishments, Coach Dooley was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1994. He is also a member of the Georgia Sports Hall of Fame and Alabama’s Hall of Fame, the state where he played football at Auburn and later coached as an assistant under the formidable Shug Jordan.
Vince Dooley is not only a legend – his name known to every avid sports fan across the nation – he is a Southern icon. He knew and coached against some of college football’s most admired men: Bear Bryant, Bobby Dodd, Frank Broyles, Johnny Vaught and many others.
A man like this has an abundance of stories to tell – stories that will entertain, inspire, amuse and inform. He is a perfect speaker for banquets, conferences and any event where a well-known speaker with national credentials is desired.
He is also the author of the well-received memoir, Dooley: My 40 Years At Georgia. Vince Dooley continues to live in his beloved town of Athens, Georgia, with his wife, Barbara. The Dooleys live in the same home they first purchased in Athens in 1964. An avid master gardener, Coach Dooley has created a dream garden and luscious lawn at their home. The University of Georgia Department of Horticulture honored Coach Dooley by naming a rose after him. The former coach has developed a sturdy hydrangea that can withstand late spring freezes.
Additionally, Coach Dooley is a history buff, a Civil War authority, and a member of the renowned Civil War Round Table.
Also see Barbara Dooley. If you’re looking for something really special and out-of-the-ordinary, book both Dooleys together and let them each share their version of the same story – Which, by the way, is rarely the same, proving how differently men and women can see the same situation. Separate or together, Vince and Barbara Dooley are surefire winners. They are both humorous, enlightening, and extremely professional guest speakers!
