📍 Starkville Yellow Jackets·Tuesday, July 7, 2026·FridayNightPulse Insider
The Starkville Yellow Jackets have hired Jason Lee as their new strength and conditioning coordinator. Lee replaces longtime coordinator Mark Johnson, who retired after last season. The Jackets finished 8-4 in Class 6A last year, falling to Madison Central in the second round of the playoffs. Lee's hiring is seen as a key move in the Jackets' efforts to regain their status as a top contender in the region. With a strong recruiting class on the horizon, Lee's expertise is expected to help the Jackets build the physicality needed to compete with the likes of Madison Central and other top teams in the state.
