Bill was a fine coach...and I enjoyed meeting him especially


Jul 4, 2011, 12:16 PM

since he gave of his time to any fan.

I had interviewed him back in 1965 for The TIGER as a sportswriter preparing an article about his baseball team.

And, in 1989 he still remembered me as he came out of the Clemson Athletic Offices on a Sunday morning when we ran into each other...and we talked for 15 minutes.

Congratulations to Bill Wilhelm...a splendid coach, fine man and a Clemson legend, who won big-time for the TIGERS.

A true Clemson Icon

finally got his due. I agree with the above that he probably preferred it come after his passing. That's the way the great ones of his generation were.

nice job HOF...

...you had how many years to do this while he was alive?? This HOF seems to be a lot like that of MLB...a disgrace, IMO
