Anyone that served as a role model to the likes of Bear Bryant deserves a high rating.

If the Lord has need of a coach in heaven, you will see Bobby Dodd on the sidelines as The Coach!!! Wow! I had the pleasure as a young boy to meet coach Dodd many times, through my father, who was a Christian minister in Carrollton. I got to call him Uncle Bobby! Wow!

Just helping bring this rating down to realistic status. He was a good coach and the only person to really bring Tech to any sort of winning tradition. Yes, Tech hasn't seen this since...but who's counting?? lol.

Man, lots of Tech fans on this thing, huh? Never believe a Tech fan.

The word is CLASS. There is no other coach who compares when it comes to class. In today's world where anything goes he may have been the last big time coach who believed and practiced ethics. He firmly believed in his players getting an education. He also felt it was his duty to do what was best for the players.

The name, the man, the school....He is an icon onto himself. BDS@HGF

Best sidelines Game Day coach ever!

Definitely one of the Top 5 coaches of all time. No doubt about it. He and Bear Bryant had some epic contests and a great rivalry.

Bobby Dodd's teams in the early 50s attended six straight bowls (back when there were few bowls) and won six straight. His '52 team won the NC (according to INS). He was a great strategist, and a classy person in general. There's a good reason a coaching award is named for him.
