House Resolution 2009 is a ceremonial resolution honoring Danny Hall for his long and highly successful career in collegiate baseball. The resolution recounts his coaching path from graduate assistant at Miami University, to assistant coach at the University of Michigan, to head coach at Kent State, and then to a 32-season tenure as head coach at Georgia Tech. It highlights his conference championships, NCAA Tournament and College World Series appearances, player development record, and national recognition, including his Hall of Fame induction and honorary alumnus designation.
The resolution does not create or amend any state law, change agency authority, or appropriate funds. Its practical effect is limited to the House formally commending Hall and directing the Clerk to provide him an official copy of the resolution. As a result, the bill affects no statutes or regulated parties and functions entirely as a legislative tribute.
Impact
HR 2009 has no substantive legal effect and does not amend Georgia statutes, create new duties, or alter rights or obligations for any person or entity. Its only operational effect is to authorize the House Clerk to distribute an official copy of the resolution to Danny Hall, making it a formal expression of recognition rather than a policy measure.
Sentiment
The sentiment around the resolution is uniformly positive and celebratory. The sponsors present Danny Hall as an exemplary coach whose career brought distinction to Georgia Tech and collegiate baseball more broadly, and the resolution expresses appreciation for his service and best wishes for his future health and happiness. There is no recorded opposition, vote controversy, or committee debate in the available materials.
Contention
There are no notable points of contention in the available record. Because the measure is a nonbinding commendation, it does not appear to have generated disagreement over policy, cost, or legal impact. The only identifiable position is supportive, centered on honoring Danny Hall’s coaching achievements and contributions to student-athletes.
