Hall of Fame
An All-America defensive back in 1970, Bill Casey is best known for being part of one of the best secondary squads in the history of ETSU football. The Bucs still hold the Ohio Valley Conference record for interceptions in a season with 34 in 1969, a group called “Bennett’s Bandits,” who also picked off NFL Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw three times that same season in the Grantland Rice Bowl – one of which Casey intercepted. Casey is tied for the current school record for interceptions in a season with 11 in 1969, and is also tied for career interceptions with 22 from 1968 to 1970.
