The AUTHORITY on Texas High School Football!

Chris Doelle sits down with Coach Don Clayton in the newest episode of this groundbreaking series on Lone Star Gridiron. In the show, we celebrate the coaches that have made a difference in the lives of people around them.

Listen in as we discuss:

How Coach Clayton got the coaching bug
Schools that played a role in his career: Nederland, University of Wyoming, Beaumont French, A&M Consolidated, Katy, Katy Cinco Ranch, Livingston,
The importance of being an educator
His education on loyalty
The coaches that influenced/impacted him along the way
The education of being a head football coach and athletic director
The ups and downs of starting a program from the ground up
How a community is more important than a town
The importance of building a program to last and doing right by the kids
A touching story of Coach Clayton's education on how to treat kids and understand they are all different
How football and sports contributes to giving kids something positive
You don't treat kids equally - but you do treat them fairly
The importance of managing people and the struggle of balancing coaching spots with teaching positions
Letting your coaches coach  - not micro-managing but being a resource for them
Issues with kids today and the direction of our country
and much more!

COACHES: we want to hear your story as well.  If you are a current or former Texas high school football head coach, contact us and we will set up a time for your interview!
