The Skinny
Coach Ashley Henderson enters his second season at the helm as head coach for the Thomas County Central Yellow Jackets. Coach Henderson won 3 GISA state titles at Valwood prior to coming to Thomas County Central.
On offense, Kalique Guyton and Persean Taylor should both see snaps at quarterback. Dondrell Green is the team’s leading returning running back. While Zendai Brooks and Carrington Robinson will be counted on at receiver. All-Region offensive lineman Garrett Harrell returns as well for the Jackets.
Defensively, All-Region selections Tykeem Wallace and Jordan Jones return to the Jackets secondary.
Safety, Tandis Wright also returns giving the Jackets an experienced secondary. Jordan Jones should also be a factor for the Jackets along with Wright and Wallace.
There are no particular games circled on the schedule for the Jackets. Coach Henderson said they are all circled.
How will Coach Henderson and the Jackets define success this season?
“Long term is check back in 15 years and see what kind of men we’ve raised. What kind of fathers they have become, etc,” he said. “Short term goals win 1 game a week.”
