Coach Dungy

Will announce his retirement today at about 5pm. Our local news broke the story at about 11:40am.

While I'm not a huge sports fan, this guy seems such a super great person and he really turned the Indianpaolis Colts around!!

I wish him and his family lots of luck with everything they do.

While I am sad to see Dungy retire, he was a great coach and a admirable man. May he and his family prosper in the future.

Dungy is one of my favorite coaches; he seems like such a great person as well as a coach.

Maybe if we're lucky he will come back home to Jackson Michigan. I'm not counting on it though. I remember him playing football for one of the local high schools. His name was always in the newspaper. My cousin played against him in high school.

He is truly a class act and a true gentleman. Good luck to him and his family.

You know how great this man is??

When our friend died in 2003, his son works for the Colts--you'd see him wearing a headset on the field. Anyway, Coach Dungy and about 30 Colts came into the funeral home, presented our friend with the Game Ball, placed on the coffin and stayed around for quite a while.
I just cannot find fault in anyone who is so giving and caring--not only is his family his family, but so were the players and staff.

He is a great guy. He did a lot for Indianapolis. He started a program called All-Pro Dads and helped out with child abuse in the area to name just a few. He is such a great person. I wish him luck on whatever he does. I know I will miss and the team as well!!!

He and his wife have a home in Tampa and his son Eric plays for Plant City High- not too far from us. Our Fox station is reporting he will soon be here and the Tampa area is really excited to welcome him back.

I am not big on the NFL but this guy has always been a standout.
