Everett Case (June 21, 1900 - April 30, 1966), nicknamed "Old Gray Fox" was an American college basketball coach. Case was a brilliant combination of coach, promoter and motivator. His dynamic personality gave him the ability to inspire his players as well as excite the crowds. An animated bench coach, he would constantly chew gum and implore his players on with motivational speeches.

Born in Anderson, Indiana, Case graduated from the University of Wisconsin in 1923. He compiled a 726-75 record while coaching 23 years in high school basketball, including winning 4 Indiana state championships (1925, 1929, 1936, 1939).

Case enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1941. He was commissioned a senior-grade lieutenant and reported to Annapolis for a four-week training course. Then off to Chicago for five weeks training and then to Naval Pre-flight school at St. Mary's College in California where he served as assistant athletic director and director of basketball. He was also athletic director at the Alameda Naval Air Station.

In 1943, DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana began a naval flight preparatory school. An abbreviated basketball schedule was used and Case, now a Lieutenant Commander became the Athletic Director of the program.

Upon leaving the Navy in 1946 Case took over at North Carolina State University where he coached for 18 seasons. From 1946 to 1964, Case-coached teams went 376-133 (.739), won six straight Southern Conference titles, four Atlantic Coast Conference crowns and seven Dixie Classics. Case himself was aptly rewarded, earning three ACC Coach of the Year awards in 1954, 1955 and 1958. Case's teams finished third in the 1947 NIT and third in the 1950 NCAA Tournament.

He was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame on May 3, 1982 and the North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame in 1964.
