GHSF Daily asked Georgia head coaches to answer these four questions. We'll report from a different head coach each day.

Wayne Dabbs, Mount Vernon Presbyterian

1. What is the most memorable game you've been a part of as a player or coach? "When I was coaching at Cumberland University in Nashville, we were playing Lambuth University when Hugh Freeze was the head coach. We were tied with less than a minute left on the clock. We drove the length of the field to get inside the red zone to kick a game-winning field goal as time expired and to win the conference."

2. Which high school coach would you want your son to play for, and why? "Marty Wild, assistant head coach at Westminster. Marty is a close friend, and I know that he truly cares about the player. His joy in coaching comes from his players having success. I also know that they would learn more than just football under his leadership."

3. What is your pet peeve as a coach? "Not really a pet peeve, but I do not like seeing players practice bad habits at practice because so often you see those bad habits carry over to the games."

4. Which GHSA policy or high school football rule would you most like to see changed? "None."
