Al Wilson Information

[WillisWG]

You knew this guy was a beast! A man amongst boys. The gap in talent was almost laughable.

Coach Mullinax nailed it in calling him a once in a lifetime player

I don't know that name.

Details are sketchy after the doctor slapped him at birth and AW knocked him out.

Tennessee has been a linebacker factory with guys like Steve Kiner and Jack Reynolds and Andy Spiva and Craig Puki playing that position along with Wilson.

Key words. “Has been”. Miss those amazing days

One BAD MFer!

Camera guy did his best making this shaky video, but he was trembling when he filmed it because Al was facing him.

I don't know that name.

John Mullinax was longtime coach for McMinn County football, he happened to be the defensive back coach for 95 Tennessee vs Kentucky All-Star game that AW played in.

Senior moment edit

There's been multiple reports of Al taking Rod Wilks lunch money.

I thought Wilks was spelled with the “e” as in Wilkes. Could there be another legend?

Got to see Al play several times at Neyland Stadium. Player, motivator...feared by opponents, teammates & even his coaches.

Just curious but why you lookin for the pics?

Dude is so cool. Met him a few years back in ATL. Super warm and friendly.

Hey all I am looking for some pictures of Al Wilson as a kid or even in high school. I have scrubbed Google but am having no luck. Anyone know of any? Or just any general information about his childhood?

 

[GoVols1961]

Al Wilson had no childhood. He was built in a University of Tennessee lab with the finest of parts by a team of mad scientists.

 

[JCamp]

He grew up in Jackson, TN. See if you can dig up any Jackson Sun archives from the 90’s.

I played at Haywood with Tyrone Hines and let me tell you Al was a bad dude. Hated seeing him on the field!

I remember that I was at the Philip Fulmer Football football camp and in the same position group with Al Wilson. Lovie Smith was our position group coach. It was the same summer when OJ was on the lam. We didn't have TVs or cell phones at camp so when we got out of camp that was huge news.

Shut yo mouth!

"I'm just talkin' 'bout Al...?"

 

[Bleeding.Orange]

I have some yearbook photos. What are you doing with all this?

I am making a video over him and his life gonna be like a short documentary but I cannot find any pics of his childhood or even who his parents names were. Just where he grew up and where he went to school, so any pics or information would be amazing!
