When we get a note from legendary head football coach, Phillip Haywood (486-163, 8-titles), presently coaching at Belfry High, asking us if we would help promote an offensive center flying under the radar owing to his being an inch or two shorter than some big-timers wish, we respond, “Yessir, Coach.” If you’re a head coach and don’t find us as accommodating to your program or you, the answer is simple, though something you may to wish to hear. He’s Phillip Haywood; you’re not. Sorry. Well anyways, we got such a note from Coach Haywood and we dug around and found his analysis to be on the money. Max Dotson, ’25 center, is a 6’2,” 310-pound guy who is the son and grandson of two stalwarts who, themselves, played in college (Marshall). This kid will play in college too. It is a matter of where, not if.
