Ralph McRight was an outstanding blocking back on Wallace Wade's 1925 University of Alabama Rose Bowl team. McRight must have graduated from Russellville around 1920-22. Source:Passing the Torch-A Look At The History of the Golden Tigers. 1994. Franklin County Times.
I recall from high school days that football at Russellville was thought to have started in 1919.
