- Sports
Whether I am recording the conversation with Josh Herring or not, our interactions never disappoint. He is both an outstanding student and teacher of the game and can take complex ideas and simplify them in the way he teaches them so that his players can excel in execution.
In 2023, Coach Herring moved back to his previous position of QB Coach at Lassiter High School after serving a stint as OC at Jones County High School. In this episode, he shares what he is seeing in the evolution of the passing game.
