Glencoe football: Jamison Wadley out as coach; Seeking third coach since beginning of 2021 season
The Glencoe football program will be looking for its third football coach since the beginning of the 2021 season.
Jamison Wadley, who was promoted from interim coach in November, is out. The school posted its high school football position on Friday.
Principal Wendy Tinker confirmed Wadley was out as the coach, but said she could not comment on personnel about if he was fired or resigned.

The Yellow Jackets went 1-7 under Wadley after he took over following the resignation of Brian Alred in September.
Wadley was initially hired as the strength and conditioning coach in January of 2021. He did not return a call from the Gadsden Times for comment.
Glencoe went 1-9 last season and will be seeking its fourth coach since Lee Ozmint led the team to a 9-2 mark and the second round of the playoffs in 2015.
Tinker said the search for a new coach would begin immediately.
"I am going to take my time and hopefully find the right one," Tinker said.
Glencoe is scheduled to begin its season on the road against Weaver on Aug. 26.
It is the second Etowah County football coaching position that opened up this week. Gene Hill stepped down as the Sardis football coach after 11 years.
