Bruce Jones Finally Gets His Due
.......................................................................
His selection was the culmination of a two-year effort by members of that 1966 team--Lonnie Flippen of Marfa and former Jonesboro football coaching legend Larry Pruitt of Gatesville.
Pruitt himself is already a member of the Six Man Coaches Football Hall of Fame.
James Baize, former Gatesville schools superintendent and also a member of that Turnersville team, credits the selection of Jones to the efforts of Flippen. “He did all the work,” he noted.
