[QUOTE="Deleted member 6494, post: 913199"] I don't think that was Pepper. Bobby Dodd was one of the punters for Tennessee. The punters were practicing and not having a lot of effectiveness. The head coach came out to the punting group and placed his hat downfield close to the boundary line. He showed them the correct way to punt and then told them to punt the ball and hit his hat. Dodd was first and punted the ball dead center of the coach's hat; Dodd then said, "You mean like that coach"? While Dodd was the coach at Tech, he sat in a chair in his tower and watched all the phases of the various groups of coaches and players. The same thing happened with Dodd; he came down from his tower to teach the punters and coaches the correct way to punt. He showed them and then said, "You see my chair in the tower, "will punt the ball in the chair; he punted the ball directly into the chair in the tower". Both of these are true stories and recorded in the book, "Dodd's Luck". [/QUOTE]
