Timeline

1969

Roy Lee "Chucky" Mullins (July 8, 1969 – May 6, 1991) was an American college football cornerback who played for the Ole Miss Rebels.

He is best known for the devastating football injury that left him a quadriplegic.

1989

Mullins was injured on October 28, 1989, during the Ole Miss Rebels homecoming game against the Vanderbilt Commodores.

He plunged head-first into a tackle of Vanderbilt fullback Brad Gaines after a short pass attempt.

The impact shattered four vertebrae in cervical spine of Mullins, immediately paralyzing him.

After being airlifted to Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, Mullins underwent a tracheotomy and five-hour bone graft operation to fuse the vertebrae.

Mullins never regained sensation below his neck.

After months of intensive physical therapy, however, he was eventually able to move a hand across his body and touch his chest.

As soon as the injury occurred, Mullins became the recipient of a huge outpouring of community support.

Ole Miss fans, college football fans in the South and people from all over the nation immediately began to donate money towards growing medical expenses of him.

President George H. W. Bush visited Mullins in his hospital room and encouraged him while on a visit to Memphis.

Soon, Ole Miss established the "Chucky Mullins Trust Fund" to properly manage the donations.

The city of Oxford donated land for a specially-designed, handicap-accessible house for Mullins.

Donations to the trust fund eventually exceeded $1 million.

1990

Mullins returned to Ole Miss on June 20, 1990, to complete his undergraduate studies.

Less than a year after returning to school, Mullins was stricken by a pulmonary embolism, caused by blood clots formed by inactivity and poor circulation.

1991

He died in the hospital on May 6, 1991, and was buried in his home town of Russellville, Alabama.

2006

Chucky's number 38 was retired on September 3, 2006, in a pregame ceremony before the Rebels victory over the Memphis Tigers.

From 2006 until 2009, the winner of the "Chucky Mullins Memorial Courage Award" wore a patch in honor of this award.

However, the retiring of Chucky's jersey #38 proved to be an unpopular move.

2010

Thus, after changes to the award (i.e. any defensive player is eligible, no longer just a rising senior defensive player), the number was returned to circulation in 2010 to be exclusively worn by the award winner for that season.

Beginning with the 2021 season, award recipients are given the option of wearing a jersey with #38 or retaining their original jersey number with a "38" patch on it.

Mullins's story was memorialized in a documentary film, Undefeated: The Chucky Mullins Story and also the SEC Storied Documentary film, "It's Time".

2014

On September 26, 2014, Coliseum Drive on the Ole Miss campus was renamed as Chucky Mullins Drive.

During Mullins' time in the hospital, he and Brad Gaines, who did not know each other before the accident, became close friends.

Since the death of Mullins, Gaines visits and maintains his friend's gravesite three times a year: May 6 (the anniversary of the death of Mullins), October 28 (the anniversary of the injury) and December 25 (Christmas Day).

Gaines continues this personal tradition to date.

The impact of the accident on Gaines, and the injury to Mullins, is the subject of a SEC storied documentary "It's Time", which first aired in September 2014 on the SEC Network.

Each spring, during the annual Grove Bowl—a game at the end of spring practices pitting Ole Miss players against each other—the player who most embodies the spirit and courage of Mullins, receives the "Chucky Mullins Memorial Courage Award".

With the award, the player received the right to wear jersey number 38, the same number Mullins wore.
