Coach Wallie Culbreth, former Farragut coach for many many years, passed away yesterday from health issues.

 

He was a dear friend of mine, and we shared many games from opposite benches.  He and I always made our senior nights against each other.

 

Coach, you will be missed.

 

 

From his son:  Receiving of Friends for my Father will be at Martin Funeral Home in Oak Ridge.
1017 Oak Ridge Turnpike. 
Tuesday July 26th 4-8pm. 
Burial and Graveside Service will be Wednesday July 27th at 10:30am at Pleasant Forest Cemetery in Farragut.

Praying for his family and friends.

 

Even as an opponent, he always treated my son so very very well. One of my boy's biggest thrills was to to play for Coach Culbreth in both their last games.

 

Great Christian man. He will be missed.

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
