Colquitt County offensive coordinator Robert Craft begins work today as the new head coach of North Florida Christian, his alma mater.

Craft replaces former Colquitt County coach Tim Cokely, who is returning to Georgia this year to take over the head job at Greater Atlanta Christian.

Craft worked under Cokely at Colquitt until 2008, when Cokely was replaced by Rush Propst.

Craft is a former quarterback at Tennessee Tech and holds most of the school's passing records.

North Florida Christian, of Tallahassee, was Florida's Class 1A champion in 2008.
