We’re not usually the site to wax philosophical on another team, or another team’s coach, but I’m putting in an exception for the last remaining Virginia college football giant, William and Mary coach Jimmye Laycock. Laycock has been the head coach of the Tribe since time immemorial- AKA when my dad was in college. 1980 to now, announcing in August that this would be his last year.
Laycock’s never been anything to sniff at, especially at the FCS level. A Virginian himself, he coaches at his alma mater- like former Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer. That’s got to be special for someone that has rattled off an impressive 246 wins over his long tenure.
