Dan Magill = Damn Good Dawg...Plus Jamie Henderson Props

Dan Magill reels in the years and retells his first person account of President Franklin Roosevelt's visit to the University of Georgia 68 years ago this month. He also manages to name-check UGA's first All-American Bob McWhorter, Milton "Red" Leathers, former Governor E.D. Rivers, Chancellor S.V. "Stadium" Sanford and Gen. Howell Cobb. Georgia historians will understand why Roosevelt was not honored during the previous (and subsequent) gubernatorial administration.

Coach Magill is a living legend and tells a better story than any member of the Bulldog Nation. Read his article. We'll wait.

If you go visit Coach Magill in his office, he'll sign and personalize his excellent book, plus tell you a good story. Trust us.

Now that you're done reading Coach Magill's column, let us salute Jamie Henderson for beating astronomical odds in overcoming a life-threatening motorcycle injury to graduate from UGA Saturday.

Way to go, Jamie! GATA!
