What is the point of being among the longest tenured coaches in HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL?? Guess you Georgia people don’t believe in putting the bar too high!

It means you’re doing your job. You get fired if you’re not. What does a Japanese Jet Pilot know about football anyway?

In this day and age of low pay, disloyalty, and the never happy player or parent, it’s a miracle anybody lasts more than a couple of years.

JJ you do not know anything about football since Larry Campbell is the winningest coach in GA history plus he has more State Championships in Georgia Also. Stuff it.
