Bill Haney is what High School sports are all about.

 

My prayers go out to his family and the family of the young football player. (Sad news)

This is a great loss for Milan,Trenton, Gibson County, and all of Tennessee high school sports.

A true ledgend in broadcasting, member of four hall of fames, head of a great family, and all around good guy.

He was calling in updates on 96.5 Friday night from the Trenton/Lake Co. game. A legend in high school sports.

 

 

I'm going to miss interacting with Bill on the show on Fridays. He was in fine form this past Friday night, and did an excellent job as always. The Trenton/Lake Co. game ran long, and he was our last caller of the night before we signed off at 11.

 

He was everything that you could ask for when it came to game updates - knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and most importantly, entertaining.

 

This Friday won't be the same without him calling in updates for the Milan/Hunt. game.

I`ve never met the man, but have listened to him on the radio. No doubt many here in West TN thought of high school football when they heard the name Bill Haney. I had no idea until tonight that he was 78 years old. That shows his love for the game and for the kids. God be with him and his family and many, many friends.

great man with a great family. prayers to the haneys.

Prayers from my family to his.

 

I'm going to miss hearing him call in on 96.5 on Fridays. He was a joy to listen to, and there is no doubt that he loved West Tennessee high school sports.

I've known the Haney family since I was playing T-ball with his grandson. Even with a busy schedule, he followed our baseball days growing up at every turn. God bless Mrs. Peggy and the family during these days.

 

My time in radio was directly influenced by the local voices of Bill Haney and "Diamond" Dave McCulley - I'm sure many have similar stories of how Bill was an influence on their lives.
