Denison High School’s Head Football Coach, Cody White, will be promoted to Athletic Director/Head Football Coach effective at the close of this school year, according to Dr. Henry Scott, Superintendent of Denison schools.

“Our community and our fans expect a quality athletic program that gives all our student athletes a chance to compete at a high level. I believe Coach White will do an outstanding job of leading the Yellow Jacket program,” Dr. Scott said in a press release.

Current athletic director and former longtime Denison head coach Bob Brown will step down after 17 years as athletic director. During his fifteen years as head coach, he compiled a record of 127-51-1 including 8 district championships and 3 state finalist games. Coach Brown has the most wins of any coach in Denison’s long history of football success. His overall record of 227-118-3 ranks him as one of the top coaches in Texas.

This is great news. Bob Brown served Denison well. I can't think of a better guy for the job than Coach White. This team will win state next year.
