I just saw the count hit a hundred and honestly my head is spinning because I never thought we would actually get this kind of turnout so quickly. It really shows how much everyone wants Greg to finally get his shot at the head coach position even though I know the school board is still probably sitting on their hands about the whole thing.

Coached me in B Team at St. James Middle 20 years ago. Outstanding leader of men. Great offensive play-caller at varsity level. Family has a great relationship with so many locals too. I heard he was doing well calling plays through word of mouth. Former St. James players were genuinely excited for him.

Greg is no doubt the man for the job! I have taught and coached with Greg and he is a proven winner! He will bring a DAWG mentality to the program and will run things the right way. My kids are coming up through the St James school system and I pray that Greg is leading the program. I will vouch for this man over and over again! Sign him and enjoy the ride

Coach Simpson is such a great coach. his character always was shown on and off of the field. Coach Simpson always put time and effort into his coaching and was always such a good role model and such a good face to see in the halls. If anyone deserves this position it is him.

Greg would be a fantastic coach. He is wonderful with children of all ages . He was my sons football coach in middle school. Most of all he earns the kids respect and really listens to the kids!

Greg has been coaching football for several years and really knows his stuff. I know first hand how he runs his team's and how his players respond to him. In my opinion he should have been hired several years ago. This is a no-brainer!

Greg worked with me some years back providing childcare for military children. He is a dedicated man with a kind heart. He is excellent with children of all ages. I will never forget his patience working with a severely autistic 12 year old boy.

Coach Simpson has a history of successful seasons. He’s a great coach, the boys respect him, and he deserves to be the head coach.
