Dye had tested positive for the coronavirus in May while he was already hospitalized for kidney-related issues. His son, Pat Dye Jr., told Mark Schlabach of ESPN the former coach was asymptomatic for the respiratory disease.
The Georgia native had spent 12 years leading the Tigers from 1981 to 1992 as part of a 19-year career as a Division I head coach. Including stops at Wyoming and East Carolina, he accumulated a 153-62-5 career record.
He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2005, while the field at Jordan-Hare Stadium was also named in his honor that year.
