  Bobby Dodd (1908-1988)
Bobby Dodd, longtime football coach for the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) in Atlanta, is one of only three people (along with Amos Alonzo Stagg and Bowden Wyatt) to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as both a player and a coach.
Robert Lee Dodd was born on November 11, 1908, in Galax, Virginia, to Edwin Dodd and Susan Viola Nuckolls.
In addition to his winning record, Dodd is also recognized for inventing the "belly series," a play in which the quarterback places the football at the running back's abdomen and, depending on the defense, either gives the ball to the running back or keeps it.

Bobby Darin is gone now, but his spirit and vitality live on in his son, who is a constant daily reminder to Sandra Dee of what was once a happy and contented period of her life.
