Students and mentor interviewing Phil Fulmer for the documentary

A Lipscomb University student-produced documentary that explores the life and legacy of Gen. Robert Neyland, one of the most influential figures in college football history, will have a public screening at Nashville Education, Community and Arts Television’s (NECAT) studio Wednesday, May 27, from 6 to 8 p.m. at NECAT’s studio, 120 White Bridge Road, Suite 46, Nashville.

“The Bull,” produced by Lipscomb School of Communication students under the guidance of veteran journalist and former Lipscomb professional-in-residence Demetria Kalodimos, examines Neyland’s remarkable career as both a U.S. Army brigadier general and the legendary University of Tennessee Volunteers football coach whose name is now synonymous with one of college football’s most storied stadiums.

The screening, co-hosted by NECAT, a division of Nashville Public Library, will include the documentary followed by a panel discussion moderated by Kalodimos. Panelists include Ben Barry, one of the student producers; Tim Johnson, Lipscomb’s Elizabeth Gentry Brown Chair in History and author of a forthcoming book on Neyland; Blake Neyland, Neyland’s grandson; and veteran Nashville sports broadcast journalist Rudy Kalis.

The event is free and open to the public.
