[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 294816, member: 2175"] At the risk of igniting a fire storm from Doddophiles, which is not my intent, as from all I have read or heard Bobby Dodd was as good a coach and man as ever worked the sidelines. (Though he seemed to sit an awful lot, right?) Rather it is to suggest that when coaches, and it is always Paul Johnson to be specific, are compared to Dodd, those two figures should be kept in mind: 22 years, 165 wins. Or 7.5 wins a year. Strip out the whereas, on the other hand, but and however, and there it is. 7.5 wins a year. And he was idolized in Atlanta. I wonder what the half life of a hall of fame coach is before comparisons cease? Alexander, Heisman for instance. Ain't life grand, Paul? [/QUOTE]
