I believe Jim Donnan still lives in Athens, as well. There is something special about the Classic city.

My biggest regret is not staying in Athens after I graduated from UGA.

Richt is a DGD! It's very clear he loves Georgia. Welcome back coach!

Athens is God’s country...heaven on earth! Coach Richt and his family are naturals for the Classic City...as much as a hot dog, rings, and a frosted orange at the Varsity! Welcome home Coach!

I always thought that he rushed into the Miami job and instead found a position within UGA that he could love.

For all of the Richt drama, I'm sure most people would support hiring him in some low stress, high visible position.

I believe you can add Vince Dooley and Ray Goff to that list. That must be some sort of record! Is Wallace Butts still alive?! Seriously, that does say something about the university and the town that every single head coach since 1964, or to put it another way, every living former coach, has a home in or around town.
