- Jack_Vest abstract "Jack Vest (1926–1972) was an American athlete. He was a 12 letter man for East Tennessee State, winning honors in football, basketball and baseball between the years 1946-50. He is also to be found numerous times in the Buccaneer record book. He was an outstanding quarterback in football and averaged between 15-20 points per season in basketball. A gifted passer, Vest held the Buccaneer record for most passes completed in a single game for years. He was a member of the All-Decade 1940's team as a quarterback and figured prominently in some of the better teams fielded by Coach L.T. Roberts. Vest is a member of the East Tennessee State Athletic Hall of Fame.After leaving East Tennessee State, Vest coached high school football and turned out a 9-0-1 record with a St. Paul, Virginia team which had only 17 players on the entire squad. He coached at Greeneville from 1951-53.While he was an accomplished athlete in college, Vest will more likely be remembered as one of the nation's most outstanding officials in both football and basketball. After coaching football at Hanes High School in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, he became an executive in the insurance department of Wachovia Bank and devoted much time to officiating. Vest was one of the best in the Southern Conference and the Atlantic Coast Conference and worked in the Gator Bowl as a football official in 1964. For six years in a row he was an official in the NAIA national championships in Kansas City.In 1965, he became an official in the fledgling American Football League. He was the referee for Super Bowl II between the Green Bay Packers and the Oakland Raiders after the 1967 Professional Football season.He wore uniform number 3 as a referee in the NFL during the 1970 and 1971 seasons. During a Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles in November 1970, Vest wore bright blue gloves which were easily visible to the television audience. The NFL soon passed a rule all officials' gloves had to be black. That game is more memorable, however, for the antics in the broadcast booth, where Howard Cosell threw up on Don Meredith's boots and had to leave Franklin Field at halftime.Vest worked the 1970 AFC divisional playoff game between the Miami Dolphins and Oakland Raiders, and the 1971 AFC Championship game between the Dolphins and Baltimore Colts.His crew for the 1971 season included umpire Frank Sinkovitz, head linesman Leo Miles, line judge Bruce Alford, back judge Bill Kestenmeier, and field judge Tony Skover. Kestenmeier replaced Bob Frederic from Vest's 1970 crew when Frederic was promoted to referee for 1971.In June 1972 he was killed in a motorcycle accident at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Chuck Heberling was promoted from line judge to replace Vest as referee, and the remainder of Vest's crew worked with Heberling during the 1972 and 1973 seasons.".
