📍 Fargo Shanley Deacons·Saturday, July 25, 2026·FridayNightPulse Insider
The Fargo Shanley Deacons have announced the hiring of Tom Johnson as their new offensive line coach. Johnson replaces Mike Thompson, who departed after last season. Shanley, a Class AAA program, finished 7-4 in 2025. The Deacons are looking to rebuild their line after losing several key starters. Johnson's addition is expected to boost recruiting efforts, particularly in the region. The new coach has ties to the local community and is well-respected in the coaching circle. His experience working with younger linemen will be crucial in developing Shanley's 2027 class. The Deacons' August camp is just around the corner, and Johnson's presence is expected to give the team a competitive edge.
