There are just 29 days remaining until the kickoff of the 2021 high school football season. But make no mistake, preparations for the upcoming campaign got underway months ago. And teams throughout northeast Georgia already are in full countdown mode.
With that in mind, we spent the last couple of weeks catching up with programs around our area to get a feel for how spring practice went, how the summer is going, and what coaches believe the fall will look like. Our "Two-a-Days" series honors those old-school grinding sessions that lead us out of summer and into fall, asking each area coach two key questions about the state of their respective programs.
Over the next two weeks, AccessWDUN's Friday Game Night will get you prepped for the start of gridiron action with responses from coaches throughout northeast Georgia. (Teams run in alphabetical order)...
FLOWERY BRANCH
The Falcons enter the 2021 season with high hopes as they return several starters on both sides of the ball. This could be the season where the stars align as Class 4A passing leader David Renard is back to lead the offense and nine starters return to a defense that gave up just 14 points per game in the second half of the season. But there are some question marks at the Branch, mainly on the O-Line and at receiver.
We caught up with coach Ben Hall to discuss how the Falcons are coming along as they get ready for the season.
