Coach Simmons:"Coaching Helped Me Gain Confidence in the Classroom"

Mr. Lee

Stuart Cramer High School has officially named a new head football coach—and in this episode, I had the chance to sit down with the man behind the whistle. From humble beginnings in a small town where football isn’t just a game but a way of life, to taking a leap of faith and moving over two hours away to seize this opportunity—his journey is nothing short of inspiring.

We dive deep into the story behind the hire: how family legacy, grit, and an unwavering belief in building young men led him to this moment. But here’s the twist—his first love isn’t even football. 👀

We talk about:

The value of playing multiple sports vs. specializing year-round

How he builds strong teams—both in the classroom and on the field

What it truly means to shift from "Me to We"

His vision for the Storm and why Stuart Cramer’s future looks bright
