A rare look inside the life of former UGA Athletics Director and head football coach Vince Dooley is currently on display in the Richard B. Russell Special Collections Library. Entitled “Legacy: Vince Dooley 1932-2022,” this exhibition includes never-before-seen photographs and significant items from the coach’s life. The works are meant to showcase Dooley’s successful four-decades-long career in athletics as well his personal interests. The exhibit is timed perfectly with the start of the 2023 UGA football season, and exhibition curator Jason Hasty will take guests on a free tour at 3 p.m. on Fridays before each home game. Located in the Rotunda Gallery on the second floor, the collection will remain on display until the spring of 2024.
