Open Door Policy

AFM:What was the feeling like when you were named head coach and in charge of the Southlake Carroll program? TD: I’ve competed against Southlake Carroll over the years and I was truly honored to be named head coach. Like the University of Texas, there is tremendous tradition here and I was honored and humbled about the job. At the first spring booster club event I attended I remember the slogan: ‘Protect the Tradition.’ It meant a lot. AFM: Tell me how your office is used...staff meetings, visiting with recruits, watching tape, phone and computer time? TD: A little of everything...we have a meeting/board room outside the office where I meet with our coaches...My day is pretty full during the season: 6:30-7:30am: I get in at this time and map out our offense and script practice for the day. 7:30-9:00am: I oversee the athletic program at an adjacent middle school campus and review
