Your September|October Alcalde Cover [A Sneak Peek]
On the cover for the September|October issue of The Alcalde is DeLoss Dodds, the titan of Texas Athletics.
This fall, Dodds enters his 30th year as men’s athletics director. He is the longest-serving Division 1 athletics director in the country.
During his 30 years, Dodds has ushered in the golden era of UT Athletics. A quiet family man, shrewd businessman, former track star and coach, Dodds is the brains behind UT’s $136 million a year athletics empire. Kevin Hegarty, UT’s chief financial officer, calls Dodds “the best businessman on campus.”
The magazines should be arriving in mailboxes starting tomorrow. Be sure to give Lynn Freehill’s article on Dodds a close read. You won’t regret it.
