  • Dooley Selected As Recipient of 38Th Corbett Award
    Dooley Selected As Recipient Of 38th Corbett Award May 11, 2004 Cleveland, Ohio - Vince Dooley, director of athletics at the University of Georgia, has been chosen by the Officers and Executive Committee of NACDA to be the recipient of the 39th James J. Corbett Memorial Award. The Corbett Award is presented annually to the collegiate administrator who "through the years has most typified Corbett's devotion to intercollegiate athletics and worked unceasingly for its betterment." Corbett, athletics director at Louisiana State University, was NACDA's first president in 1965. The award is the highest honor one can achieve in collegiate athletics administration. Additionally, Dooley will receive an honorary degree from the Sports Management Institute (SMI), an educational institute sponsored by NACDA and the universities of Michigan, North Carolina, Notre Dame, South Carolina, Southern California and Texas. Dooley's extensive career in collegiate athletics began when he returned to Auburn University, his alma mater, after service in the Marines to take on assistant football coaching duties. He was soon hired as the head football coach at Georgia (1963-88) where he has since remained, devoting more than 40 years of service. As head coach, Dooley led the team to six Southeastern Conference (SEC) championship titles, 20 bowl games and a national championship in 1980, one year after being named Georgia's athletics director. Dooley continued to manage the dual role of head football coach and athletics director until 1988, during which time he earned two National Coach of the Year distinctions (1980, 1982). When he stepped down as coach to focus his energies on the athletics director's position, Dooley's 201 career victories ranked third among active coaches and led to his induction into the College Hall of Fame in 1994.
