Thanks.Bill Justus. Really like him.
Bill Justus enjoys stepping up his role on Tennessee Vols radio broadcasts
Loaded but never won a state title in basketball or football until the last 20 years. The old trophy cases before they remodeled the school were filled with pics of Justus, Widby, DD, Jackie Walker and John Brown (at one time, had the state record in the 100 yard dash).Fulton must have had an amazing team with Bill Justus AND Ron Widby. Did the Mississippi State football player go to Fulton at the same time? Forgot his name... had one of the original charity golf tourneys in Knoxville. Wait... DD Lewis. Helped out the Boys Club with his event 40+/- years ago.
Holston probably wasn't too shabby a couple years later with the England brothers.

Yes, I knew that. Even when I graduated in '89 there were only 3 classifications. Maryville beat us (Fulton) in '88 in the region playoffs (2A), 1-0 and went on to win the state in baseball that year. I agree with u, way to many classifications, now. Waters it downYou realize that "back then" they were real life 'state championships". One for awhile then 2. Now there's 5 or 6 in basketball and football is a complete joke.
