  • Dooley Selected As Recipient of 38Th Corbett Award

    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.

    82Nd Annual Convention of the AFCA

    82nd annual convention of the AFCA. JANUARY 9-12, 2005 * LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY President's Message It was an ordinary Friday night high school football game in Helena, Arkansas, in 1959. After eating our pre-game staples of roast beef, green beans and dry toast, we journeyed to the stadium for pre- game. As rain began to fall, a coach instructed us to get in a ditch to get wet so we would forget about the elements. By kickoff, the wind had increased to 20 miles per hour while the temperature dropped over 30 degrees. Sheets of ice were forming on our faces. Our head coach took the team to the locker room and gave us instructions for the game as we stood in the hot showers until it was time to go on the field. Trailing 6-0 at halftime, the officials tried to get both teams to cancel the game. Our coach said, "Men, they want us to cancel. If we do, the score will stand 6-0 in favor of Jonesboro." There was a silence broken by his words, "I know you don't want to get beat 6-0." Well, we finished the game and the final score was 13-0 in favor of Jonesboro. Forty-five years later, it is still the coldest game I have ever been in. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] No one likes to lose, but for every victory, there is a loss. As coaches, we must use every situation to teach about life and how champions handle both the good and the bad. I am blessed to work with coaches who care about each and every player.

    11277 Schipper Master Document.Indd

    The name Ron Schipper is forever etched into the college football history books. In addition to his famed coaching career, in 2000 he was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame and the recipient of the American Football Coaches Association’s Amos Alonzo Stagg Award for his outstanding service in advancing the best interests of the sport. These achievements, however, are not what Ron would most want to be remembered for. To him these were the little things in life, and the bigger picture is what made it all worthwhile. God and family were his top priorities, and his faith in God, devotion to family, and commitment to excellence are what made every aspect of his life a true success. Although some might say that the end on the 1920’s also brought to a close some of the most prosperous and glorious times in American history, the Schipper family would have to disagree. In the summer of 1928, Sybrand and Margaret (VanAsselt) Schipper of Zeeland, Michigan knew without a doubt that some of their best days were still to come as they awaited the arrival of their fi rst child. Another hot July drew to a close and a very pregnant Margaret was especially anxious for her newborn to come. Finally on August 7, the couple welcomed into the world a baby boy whom they named Ronald. Black Tuesday, the stock market crash that set the fi re known as the Great Depression, came just a few months after Ron celebrated his fi rst birthday. The years to follow were marked by struggle and scarcity, but working together the Schipper’s were able to stave off many of the problems faced by so many other families.
