Tony Dungy: Time with Vikings 'was special for me'

MINNEAPOLIS -- Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Indianapolis Colts head coach Tony Dungy is on his way into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, nine years after he became the first African-American coach to win a Super Bowl.

Dungy spent some of his formative years, both as a player and coach, in the Twin Cities, playing quarterback at the University of Minnesota and getting his first defensive coordinator job with the Minnesota Vikings on Dennis Green's staff in 1992.
