ALBANY FEATURE: Coaching stability is off the charts at Albany

ALBANY — In an era when long-term coaching stability is becoming increasingly rare at the high school level, the Albany football program has become an exception of staggering proportions. 

With head coach Denney Faith (37 years) and assistants Rod Britting (28 years), David Fairchild (21 years), Jimmy Fuentes (22 years), Ryder Peacock (13 years) and Tate Thompson (nine years) comprising the Lions’ staff, Albany has roughly 130 combined years of coaching stability among six guys.

Not only has Faith become the dean of area football coaches, but his support staff is just as firmly entrenched as he is.  The net result is a family, built on trust, professionalism, ethics and hard work.
