The Varsity Closing

Fan-favorite Loran Smith will contribute a weekly column to Bulldawg Illustrated. Loran has been a fixture of Georgia sports since his time as a UGA track athlete in the late 1950’s. He was captain of the 1960 team. Here is a snippet of his bio from GeorgiaDogs.com:

Smith has spent most of his professional life at UGA after graduation and during that time has held positions as Assistant Sports Information Director, Business Manager, and Executive Director of the Georgia Bulldog Club, and member of the Athletic Association Development Office.

Throughout his career, he has served as editor of the printed game day program and has been a prolific author penning a regular column that still appears in the Athens Banner-Herald as well as several newspapers around the state.
