In 1999, Wanda (Brantley) and Dan Parrish Jr. made a major gift to Georgia Southern Athletics honoring Dan's father in support of Georgia Southern's football program. Located near Hanner Fieldhouse off of Fair Road, the Dan J. Parrish Sr. Football Center housed football coaching staff offices and meeting rooms.
However, with the expansion of the football stadium in 2014, football operations moved from the Dan J. Parrish Sr. Football Center to the new Ted Smith Family Football Center adjacent to Allen E. Paulson Stadium in Erk Russell Athletic Park.
Wanda and Dan Parrish provided yet another gift to renovate and rename the Dan J. Parrish Sr. Football Center in 2015. Now known as the Dan J. Parrish Sr. Building, the building provides a hub for athletics’ administration and women’s coaching staffs, which includes senior athletic administrators, marketing, media relations, external operations and coaching staffs for women's basketball, soccer, softball, tennis, track and field/cross country and volleyball.
