Germantown hires Fairley's Gene Robinson, 28, as football coach

 

KHARI THOMPSON   | Memphis Commercial Appeal

Germantown has hired Fairley's Gene Robinson III as its next head football coach, the school announced Monday.

Robinson, 28, is the three-time defending Region 8-2A coach of the year. Fairley finished 10-3 and made the Class 2A quarterfinals this season. 

Robinson starred at Whitehaven before playing at North Carolina. He has been coaching in the Memphis area since 2014.

He coached the Red Team to a 14-10 victory in this year's AutoZone Liberty Bowl High School All-Star game. He's the only person to play and coach in the game. 

Robinson replaces Tommy Ferrill, who was 2-9 in his only season season as Red Devils coach after winning a state title as an offensive coordinator at Horn Lake. Germantown was 2-9 last season and lost 56-12 to rival Houston in the first round of the Class 6A playoffs.

      So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?

      Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many.

      Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.

      I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
