Randy Smith: Tom Weathers Blue Parka Thursday, December 10, 2020 - by Randy Smith
I can still see it now. The snow swirling in the final minutes of the TSSAA State Championship Game back in 2000. The Red Bank Lions kept handing the ball to their super-stud running back Gerald Riggs Jr. to seal the Class 5-A state title. The Lions would defeat Murfreesboro Riverdale 27-7 that night, in the middle of a snowstorm 20 years ago. There is one image burned into my memory from that night that is even more vivid. That s the image of Red Bank coach Tom Weathers standing on the sidelines wearing a blue parka with the hood over his head.
