Who Is This Famous FL HS Coach? Robby Pruitt

[OldSchoolLion 1,861]

How many hc's can say they won 100 FL hs football games by the time they were 36 years old.  This guy can!

Who is he?

At what school did he win his 100th game?

This is a wild guess, and probably wrong, but wasn't Gene Cox named Head Coach of Tallahassee Leon when he was in his very early 20's? I know that he was in that position for almost 60 years.

Great coach, but not the one I am looking for.

Corky Rogers?   I think he may have won his first hundred at Lee, his alma mater, before moving on to Bolles.

Not the answer, but coach  Jordan Ingman at Port Charlotte just might do this. Hired as a head coach at age 22, he's been the head coach at Port Charlotte since 2012 and has had a winning season every year.  8 seasons as a coach and only 30. Now that Binky Waldrop has retired he becomes one of the longest tenured coaches in SWF

Good guess, but no.  I believe Rogers was about 40 when we won his 100th game.

Hint: This guy won multiple state titles in his career.

No, but this hc did coach in that part of the state at one time.
