This Week in TXHSFB: Georgetown hires, a big retirement in East Texas, spring football Is near

Chuck Griffin returns to Georgetown
Georgetown named Abilene ISD assistant athletic director Chuck Griffin as its next HFC. Griffin has two seasons of head coaching experience at Troup from 2010-2011 and spent 2012-207 as the offensive coordinator at Georgetown. He worked for current GISD athletic director Jason Dean and has his former boss, Phil Blue, in Abilene was Dean’s athletic director in Georgeown, so lots of ties here with this hire.

On Wednesday, Crosby started up the interview process to replace Jeff Riordan, who departed in March to take over at Tyler Chapel Hill. Reports are six candidates are being interviewed, including a current East Texas HC and two current assistant coaches in the Houston area, one of whom has head coaching experience.
