Shock Upset: How Trump’s Endorsement Toppled Ex-Tennessee Coach Derek Dooley’s Senate Dreams
Former Tennessee and Louisiana Tech head football coach Derek Dooley has lost his bid for the Republican U.S. Senate nomination in Georgia, falling short in the primary election there June 16 after committing the partisan sin of admitting that Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election.
Dooley, 58, is the son of legendary Georgia head coach Vince Dooley. As a political novice, he traded on his name and football background in his campaign for the nomination, much like former Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville did in his successful campaign for a U.S. Senate seat in Alabama in 2020.
But a big difference between Tuberville and Dooley is that Trump endorsed one and not the other.
