"You'll never win the championship by just being a great offensive team" Coach Pat Riley on defense & how you emphasize on it

Willie Mays. Birmingham Legend. RIP.

I am proud to announce my new home! Honored to have the opportunity to lead this school and young men. I’m ready to get to work! Let’s Go Wildcats!!

Great to see former Banks Academy head basketball coach & 2018 ACAA State Champion Chase Cornelius taking over the bball program at Shelby County High School! Go get them Coach!

So ready to get this thing rolling!

Definitely lots of excitement yesterday. We’ve seen what can come out of Shelby County when great leaders maximize the talent in the Columbiana area, and I think Cornelius could do just that. Side note, his daughter Lena is the most lovable ball of energy and will be a star.

Really appreciate everyone who allowed me to be a small part of the Grant Nelson Youth Camp today… guy is an absolute star and very humble. Enjoyed getting to work with the kids!

Congrats to a great coach!! Well deserved brother. Coach White is an amazing leader and an even better person!! Honored to have worked with him.

Make sure you grab your copy of Shelby Co. Reporter this weekend, including Bobby Madison Camp on the front and The Mike Jack Experience, D2 Camp, Spain Park girls basketball camp, Pelham basketball camp, Chase Cornelius' welcome story and Trey Allen's trials results in sports.

It’s all because of the young men that have trusted and bought into the system over the years. This is for them more than for me.

🏈 Final: Shelby County 15, Sipsey Valley 7. Shelby County grinds out another win on the ground with 343 yards of total offense. The Wildcats have now eclipsed last season’s win total in just three games and keep rolling on.

Fave college player of the last two decades!!

1-0 every week. Pretty good night for myself, first clip was the only ball thrown to my man and you see how that went...Super proud of my team and the way they fought, ready for next week.

🏈 Final: Shelby County High School Athletics 42, Jemison 6. Jemison scored late on the backup defense, but this one was all Shelby County early. Another big day from Anthony Palmieri and a breakout performance from Noah Trenholm take the Wildcats to 4-0.

What a great story for this team and the school. A historic season in the making. Congrats to Coach Zeb Ellison and Shelby County. Shelby Co Schools AL
