Southlake Carroll Pursues Experienced Coordinator Hire
Southlake Carroll, a perennial 6A powerhouse, is rumored to be targeting a veteran coordinator to bolster its staff ahead of the 2026 season. The program, fresh off a 10-3 campaign and a bi-district playoff appearance, is seeking a seasoned tactician to complement head coach Riley Dodge's system. The hire would not only bring immediate defensive expertise but also provide a stabilizing presence in the event of a future departure. If coordinator Josh Stephens were to leave, it would be a significant blow to the program's recruiting efforts, as his presence has been a major draw for top talent in the region. Stephens' 12-year tenure and 4-state championship wins make him an attractive candidate for the Carroll program.
