Coach Vincent is coming home, let’s all turn out to welcome him back

LAFOLLETTE, TN (SPECIAL TO WLAF)- Welcome Home, Coach Greg Vincent! ❤️

After six months of hospitalization following his tree stand accident, Greg Vincent is finally coming home to Campbell County.

Everyone is invited to join-in welcoming Coach Vincent home by lining the roadway from Sonic to First Baptist Church of La Follette on Wednesday, July 22.

The family expects to travel through the area around 4pm. So, if you’re able, please begin gathering along the route about 3:40pm.

Bring your smiles, wave, cheer, and feel free to make posters or bring balloons to let Coach Vincent know how much this community has missed him and is praying for his continued recovery.

The Vincent family has deeply missed seeing their friends and loved ones. However, because Greg’s immune system remains very weak, they respectfully ask that no visitors come to the home for the next few weeks while he continues to recover.

Let’s show Coach Vincent and his family the love, encouragement, and support that make our community so special. We can’t wait to welcome him home! (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED-07/14/2026-3PM-PHOTO SUBMITTED)
