I have been a football coach for 28 years, currently the QB/DL coach at Lafayette High School in Williamsburg, VA.

I coached football for 15 years in college at some great schools in the ACC, Conference USA, Atlantic 10 and CAA. I have also been fortunate to coach High School football, as a head coach, for 13 years at Deep Run and Grafton High Schools. We exclusively ran flexbone, very successfully, all 10 years.

I played high school football at D.W. Daniel High School in Central South Carolina and was a part of back-to-back state championships running split back veer for Allen Sitterle.

I played college football at Clemson University and was a part of 4 bowl games during my time there.
