'All eyes are going to be on us like never before': How Trinity Christian-Addison landed Pro Football Hall of Famer Mike Singletary

ADDISON - On Wednesday, Trinity Christian - Addison executive athletics director Kirk McJunkin took the stage in the school's auditorium with the school's new head coach: Hall of Fame linebacker and former NFL coach Mike Singletary.

It was a situation neither expected to be in. TCA was already well into its coaching search when McJunkin heard the news that Singletary might be interested in coaching high school football and reached out on a whim.

Singletary wasn't so sure he wanted to coach high school. The Hall of Fame linebacker had been head coach of the San Francisco 49ers (first in an interim role and then permanently) from 2008-2010.
