Add another award to Mike MacIntyre’s trophy case.
The Colorado Buffaloes head football coach on Friday was named the winner of the 2016 Dodd Trophy, recognizing MacIntyre for his team’s success on the field, classroom and community. MacIntyre’s father, the late George MacIntyre, also won the award in 1982.
“I’m honored to receive this award on behalf of the University of Colorado,” MacIntyre said in a news release. “Our football team and our coaching staff has done a phenomenal job this year. This award is very personal to me, my dad won this award and I also got to know coach Dodd when I was playing at Georgia Tech, so I am honored and blessed to kind of follow in my dad’s footsteps.
