Anyone know a p. Billings? My son found his high school state championship ring in Chattanooga, 1998.  Pretty ring!  We would like to get it back to him!

Could be Pete Billingsley, they may have misspelled his name. He was secondary coach at Maryville during that time and one of my favorite coaches ever. Unfortunately he passed away a few years back, but I know a few people who'd be able to help get that ring back to his family.

The Farragut and Carson-Newman grad Pete Billingsley,  correct?

Pete Billingsley was a great, great man. After a great HS career at Farragut, he was a great athlete at Carson-Newman. Following his playing career, he had a successful coaching career at Farragut, Maryville, CAK, Lenoir City, Rhea County, as well as a stint in GA. He was a great follower of Christ and led many FCA small groups at all the schools he coached. He passed away in 2020 and was greatly loved by many people he interacted with in the schools he worked. His family is still in Knox and Blount counties and would greatly appreciate this lost item.

I,watched him play in in high school, and we had a close common friend who was a teammate of his at Carson-Newman.  Got to have conversations with him on several occasions. 

Great player, class act.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
