The list of mentors Geneva native Randy Nolen learned from is like a Who’s Who of coaching legends – Rex Bynum, Max Griffin, Jim Bixby, Bill Farrar, Donnie Chesteen –
On Saturday night, Nolen, a longtime high school baseball coach, joins those men along with five other inductees as part of the 28th class being ushered into the WSHOF during a dinner banquet at the Wiregrass Rehabilitation Center in Dothan. Also entering will be Janie Wiggins, Ricky Render, Randy Griffin, Grady Elmore and Tim Hulsey. There are no more tickets available for the event since there was a cutoff of Wednesday.
Nolen would become three-sport standout at Geneva, playing for Griffin in football, Chesteen and Bynum in baseball and Bixby in basketball. “I call him and his wife answers the phone and says, ‘He’s gone to California on a recruiting trip, but me and him were talking about you last night … he wants to talk to you.’
“I said, ‘Yes sir, I sure am.’ He said, ‘Well, when you come down to see your mom and dad, come by and see me and let’s talk.’ One thing led to another and he hired me.”
