Q. How would you characterize this year’s team?
A. We return a lot of experience on both sides of the ball, but we will install new offense and new defense from last season. This team has worked incredibly hard this offseason.
Q. What will be the keys to your success?
A. Like most seasons, we need to stay in good situations on offense and create some explosive plays while taking care of the football at all times.
Q. Who will be your key leaders on the team?
A. Caine Woods, Nash Smith, Weston Sumner, Franck Atangana, Aldo Tugwell, and Westin Godfrey.
Q. What are your biggest reasons for optimism?
A. This team and community are eager for success. This will be a year of learning new playbooks, new methods, new everything.
Q. What will keep you up at night?
A. I treat these players like they are one of my own kids, so everything keeps me up at night when it comes to our players.
Q. What can you build on from last year?
A. Although results were not what Dalton wanted from last season, on-the-field experience is something that you cannot duplicate. The players battled until the very end, which is something I can definitely work with and compound into future success.

The Dalton Catamounts are looking to bounce back after a tough year in 2024. The upcoming season of Catamount football promises to be exciting, with a new system on both sides of the ball and a return of many young, promising, and talented players. I am excited to build this program back to one of the top programs in the state of Georgia.
