Charles Perry Field House: The Field House was dedicated to Charles E. Perry in May 1998. Chuck Perry graduated from BGSU and then returned as director of admissions, director of development and assistant to the president. He founded the Falcon Club and was a long-time supporter of BGSU athletics. After leaving BGSU, he founded Florida International University where he became the youngest university president in the nation.

You know what this means?

When Florida International makes it's trip to Doyt Perry Stadium, we can bellow, with a great deal of legitimacy, "Who's your daddy?"

But I love the "Who's your daddy?" thing... :lol:

Another interesting note, after Doyt retired as BG's athletic director, he spent some time as the athletic director at FIU. (Although I can't find where I read that at this time. :? )
"I don't believe I can name a coach, anywhere, anytime, anyhow, who did it better than Doyt Perry."
