The death of Erk Russell
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Former Georgia Southern and UGA coaching legend Erk Russell died Friday morning following a car accident near Statesboro, although a medical official there said the cause of death is more likely a stroke.
After serving as Vince Dooley’s chief defensive coach for many years, he left UGA and won several national championships at Division I-AA Georgia Southern.
What do you believe Russell’s legacy will be for college football in the state of Georgia? What is your fondest memory of his coaching career?
