Info on a Desoto Co. Football coach desired....

[moneydawg]

My old high school just hired the former offensive coordinator from DeSoto High, Vic Shivers as head football coach. Says he is a State grad so thats a plus. Just wondering if anyone on the pack knows anything about him and what kind of a coach are we getting?

He was pretty young at that time. Also believe he is related to Wes Shivers, of Deuce punch fame.

Good coach and good guy, he also coached at Germantown HS....

He did get in a little trouble trying to help a Brandon LB that was headed to State.... Can't remember his name.....

Wes and Vick are brothers

Coached Norwood at Brandon.

Thanks for the info. Didn't think about him being Wes's brother. Hopefully he can get our program turned around.

Fayette Academy in Somerville, TN. He'll have his work cut out for him because we are in D2 with playing the likes of ECS, St Georges, University School of Jackson those are just a few of the tough ones. I hope he can make us competitive. The last coach was a great guy and strong christian fellow, but he preached more than he did coaching football.

I went to Oak Hill. No idea what years you went there, but in '98 one of the players died during the football game.
