Gordonsville Football broadcast

Mr Keith Williams, longtime voice of the tigers passed away this April. He seemed to be a great family guy who loved Gville football. I will for sure miss listening to him on Friday nights. Does anyone know if Pat Warren will be taking over or if there is someone stepping in to help? I am sure there will be a lot of emotion in the press box as the season kicks off.

I hate to hear this! I worked with Keith for around 8 years in my early 20s I always liked him and remember when he started broadcasting! I did not know of his passing!

He had a sudden heart attack, completely unexpected. They aired a tribute to him tonight on the radio. 

Pat Warren will continue to broadcast, but Keith's brother, John, is stepping away. Pat will be joined by his son Connor and Rusty Burton.

Sorry for you guys loss Croz. Keith trained me when I was 19 years old just outta high school on my first job. I always liked him.

Big loss for Gville athletics for sure. Glad that Pat and the others will continue doing something that we as high school football fans probably take for granted at times.

    • Began as a discussion, and evolved into a trainwreck...   Don't know how many of the TC "old guard" are left, but I feel for y'all.   Everybody has to get the last word... no matter the cost and sometimes the cost is high.
    • He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.
    • Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
    • Danny Wilson is the only one that come's to mind but I don't know where he is at now.
    • I am pro coach all day long but there are some knucklehead hires for sure.
