East Tennessee State University

A two-sport athlete from 1953 until 1955, C.E. “Pete” Wilson lettered twice in football and three time in tennis before returning to ETSU in 1962 to serve as assistant football coach until 1966. Wilson had a 63 percent completion percentage, which is still the school record. He threw 14 touchdown passes in 1955, ranking fourth highest for Buc quarterbacks. Wilson, while coaching at ETSU, served as the offensive coordinator for Star Wood and was welcomed into the ETSU Athletic Hall of Fame in 1984.
