Easley resigns Red Bay head coach position


Former South Panola assistant coach Jamie Easley is back in the market for a new job. After serving at Red Bay, Alabama for almost three months, he announced his resignation Monday afternoon.
This is Red Bay’s third head football coach resignation in seven months.
“I thought it would be easier for me to find a job in Mississippi than for Kerry to find one in Alabama which was proven she wasn’t going to get one there,” he said.
Kerry Easley was approved for hire last month in the South Panola School District.
As of Monday afternoon Easley did not have a job.
