DeKalb County is noted for the number of college players that it produces. The county might also be called the cradle of Georgia high school coaches. GHSF Daily has identified 24 current Georgia head coaches who played high school football in DeKalb County. That doesn't include some former state-championship coaches who recently have stepped down in Mark Crews of Brookwood and Cecil Flowe of Parkview (both Columbia High graduates) or Tom Fallaw of Cairo (Cross Keys).
