AUSTIN — DeLoss Dodds’ old office used to overlook East 23rd Street just north of Royal-Memorial Stadium. Now that road will have his name on it.
Texas announced it is renaming the campus street “DeLoss Dodds Way” in honor of the former athletic director, who was honored at a ceremony this week hailing his contributions to the school.
UT also announced the establishment of the Mary Ann and DeLoss Dodds Legacy Fund, which is designed to support former Longhorns student athletes who return to finish their degrees. And the group of Longhorns Foundation donors who contribute at least $25,000 will now be known as the DeLoss Dodds Leadership Team.
