As a five-year player (1967-1971), three-year coach (1972-1973, 1975), and five-year vice-president of the Gee-Gees 13th Man alumni association (1985-1990), Dan Slee and uOttawa football are very much attached at the hip.  

The only rookie from the 1967 season to start every game, Dan would become a four-time league all-star at defensive back, and was the team’s defensive captain three times. He earned All-Canadian status in 1970. As defensive backs coach, Slee helped shape the football program leading up to the Gee-Gees 1975 national championship.

From 1985-1990, Slee served as vice-president of the Gee-Gees 13th Man alumni association.
