Mesquite Horn Will Have a New Head Coach in 2025

Mesquite ISD on Monday announced that the district and Mesquite Horn head coach Courtney Allen were parting ways after Allen led the Jaguars program for the past three seasons.

Allen posted a 15-13 record in three seasons at Horn. His debut season was a smashing success as the Jaguars posted an 8-3 record, but Horn stumbled to a 5-5 mark in 2023, losing several nail-biters in the process (Horn lost three games by four points or less). In 2024, the Jags bottomed out at 2-8 after UIL Realignment sent them went into 11-6A with the likes of Duncanville, DeSoto, Waxahachie, Lancaster and Cedar Hill.
