Tuscaloosa, AL – November 14, 2024 – In a surprising turn of events, Coach Miles Holcomb announced his resignation as head coach of the Tuscaloosa County High School football team during a team meeting held this morning at 8:00 AM.

Coach Holcomb, who has been a pivotal figure in the development of the school’s football program, expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to lead the Wildcats and the relationships he has built with student-athletes over his tenure. Under his guidance, the team has strived to excel both on and off the field, emphasizing the importance of dedication, teamwork, and academic achievement.

Despite his efforts, this season has been particularly challenging for the Wildcats, as they went winless in the competitive 7A division. The team faced tough opponents and struggled to find their footing, leading to a disappointing record. Coach Holcomb’s decision to step down comes at a critical juncture for the program, which is now in search of new leadership to guide them through the upcoming seasons.

“We respect Coach Holcomb’s decision and wish him nothing but the best in his future endeavors,” said a spokesperson for the Tuscaloosa County High School administration. “He has dedicated his time, energy, and leadership to the development of our student-athletes, and his impact will be felt for years to come.”

The administration is committed to ensuring a smooth transition and is already working closely with the football staff to maintain stability within the program. Efforts will be made to continue building on the foundation laid by Coach Holcomb and to support the players during this period of change.

“Our priority remains the growth and success of our football program,” the spokesperson continued. “We will support our players as we look toward the future and seek new leadership to carry our program forward.”

As the search for a new head coach begins, the Tuscaloosa County High School community remains hopeful and dedicated to the continued development and success of their football team. The Wildcats are determined to bounce back from this challenging season and are eager to embark on a new chapter in their storied history.
