GHSF Daily asked Georgia head coaches to answer these four questions. We'll report from a different head coach each day.
Seth Rogers, Temple
1. What is the most memorable game you've been a part of as a player or coach? "It had to be when we beat Spencer here in Temple to win the most games in school history. I will never forget our kids running into the stands to celebrate with our fans. It was a great night." [The 42-22 victory in 2011 clinched what remains the only winning season in a football history that dates to 1989.]
2. Which high school coach would you want your son to play for, and why? "There are two guys that I would want my sons to play for. The first would be Steve Pennington [current Statesboro head coach]. He taught me so much when I played for him. It wasn't just football; it was about how to be a better man. The second one would be Tim Barron at Heard County. Timbo is a great coach and even better man."
3. What is your pet peeve as a coach or favorite saying/motto? "My pet peeve is not giving total effort in everything that you do on the field. There is no reason not to give effort."
4. Which GHSA policy or high school football rule would you most like to see changed? "I would like to see the start of the regular season pushed back a week or two."
