Man, am I surprised to see this thread. I actually live in Franklin and hadn't heard about this. I don't remember him playing football because that was before my time, but I can remember watching him on Midsouth Wrestling on Saturday nights. I would see him from time to time walking down Main St. about 7 or 8 years or so ago and if you stopped to talk to him he was always willing to say a few words to you. R I P Big Cat.
