Rumor: St. Augustine OC on FBS Radar
St. Augustine Purple Knights offensive coordinator, Michael Thompson, is reportedly fielding offers from multiple FBS programs. Thompson, a 10-year veteran of the program, has been instrumental in the Purple Knights' resurgence, guiding the team to a 35-5 record over the past four seasons, including a 2022 state championship. The 2022 campaign marked the program's first state title in 15 years. With Thompson at the helm, St. Augustine has become a top destination for Louisiana's top recruits. If Thompson were to depart, the program would likely face significant recruiting challenges, as his reputation and relationships with top prospects have been a major draw. The Purple Knights' administration has yet to comment on the situation, but sources close to the program indicate that Thompson is considering the offers and weighing his options.
