He was a four-sport athlete for the Vanderbilt Commodores and assistant to Coach [[Wikipedia:Henry Russell Sanders|Red Sanders]] before coaching at PHS. His record of 84 victories, 13 defeats and 3 ties made him one of Florida's winningest coaches for many years, but was eventually topped by Coach [[Mike Bennett]] in [[2007]].
