The MaxPreps High School Football Coaches Podcast made its debut this week with state and national championship head coach Jon Kay of
North Shore (Houston).
SUBSCRIBE TO THE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COACHES PODCAST ON iTUNESWhat is it like coaching a power program in the high school football hotbed of Texas?
That's among the topics host Steve Montoya explored with Kay. Hear and see more in the video below.
"We have a 16-man staff and all of them are full-time teachers," Kay said. "I think that's where Texas does it right, there's an investment not only in the athletic futures of these kids, but their academic futures as well."
North Shore's unbeaten season brought not only the Texas Class 6A-Division I state title but a final No. 1 ranking nationally from MaxPreps.
Kay was named head coach at North Shore in 2014 and has led the Mustangs to a 58-14 record in the five seasons since. Prior to being promoted to the top spot, he was the program's defensive coordinator for 15 seasons.
With the goal of being a go-to resource for coaches, check back each week as host Steve Montoya interviews those making a difference in the game.
