A recent GHSF Daily Trivia pointed out the three FBS college coaches who were former Georgia high school football players and whose fathers were former Georgia high school head coaches. They are Colorado State's Mike Bobo (George Bobo at Thomasville), Georgia's Kirby Smart (Sonny Smart at Bainbridge) and South Carolina's Will Muschamp (Larry Muschamp at Darlington). Georgia Southern head coach Tyson Summers also is a former Georgia high school player whose father was a Georgia coach, though his father Andy was not a head coach. For which Georgia high school did Tyson Summers play? (Answer Monday)

Answer to Thursday's question: Amba Etta-Tawo, the ACC wide receiver of the week from Syracuse, played high school football at McEachern.
