The 2016 Jeff Davis Football program is on its way. Ed Lovvorn stepped up to become Jeff Davis’ new head coach and brought with him running back coach Trevor Porter and quarterback coach John Williford.
Porter enjoys working at Jeff Davis High. “We have a great working staff,” Porter said. “I can’t read the future, but I can tell you it’s all about mentality, speed, and physicality.”
Williford’s family is new to the Hazlehurst area. “There are so many great people, and we enjoy living here,” Williford said.
“It’s a great program, good solid kids, and we have a great administration to help get everything we need,” Lovvorn said. “I think we will be better as the year goes on. We have to keep up this hard work.”
