Vince Dooley, professor-like football coach who led Georgia to national title in 1980 and quarter-century of success, passed away on Friday.  He was 90. Dooley passed away quietly at his Athens home in front of his wife, Barbara, and their four children, the school reported.  The reason of death was not disclosed. Dooley declared himself well recovered and prepared to attend his regular book-signing event at the campus bookstore before an Oct. 15 game against Vanderbilt. Dooley was admitted to the hospital earlier this month for what was termed as minor case of COVID-19.

He is the fourth-winningest coach in SEC history, trailing only Bear Bryant, Steve Spurrier and Nick Saban.

After retiring from coaching, Dooley continued as the school’s athletic director, a job he held from 1979 until 2004. He built a program that achieved success over a wide range of both men’s and women’s sports.

The field at Sanford Stadium was dedicated in his honor during the 2019 football season.
