Navarre football head coach Garrett Bagley out after three seasons

(This story has been updated.) Navarre football will have a new head coach next fall, as Garrett Bagley won't return after three seasons. The Navarre Press was the first to report the news and On3 national high school sports reporter Andy Villamarzo later confirmed the news . Bagley confirmed the news to the PNJ in a text this afternoon. Bagley − who was promoted from interim coach to head coach in March 2024 after longtime head coach Jay Walls took the same position at Bainbridge, Georgia − went 6-24 in three seasons leading the Raiders. That includes a 2-8 mark this fall, a season which ended on a high note with Navarre beating Gulf Breeze 42-35 for its fifth straight win in the Beach Bowl rivalry. The Raiders went 3-7 in 2024 and 1-9 in 2025, and just 1-9 overall in district play over three seasons. The results were a steep decline from Walls 12 years leading the program, where the Raiders went 102-33, won seven district titles and played in two Final Fours.

Alabama high school football team pulls off Boise State-style miracle in playoffs

The game of the week in Alabama happened in Tuscaloosa Friday night , and it more than lived up to the hype: a play eerily similar to one made during Boise State's 2007 Fiesta Bowl win over Oklahoma proved to be the difference. It was Hillcrest keeping its unbeaten season alive with a 24-21 win over Saraland, behind a hook and lateral that put the Patriots up with 5.4 remaining. Jacobi Harris was the hero and recipient of the toss. See the game winning play from tonight's @ahsaatvnetwork game between @HHSPatsFootball and @SaralandSchools on the @NFHSNetwork @espn @SportsCenter @ESPNAssignDesk pic.twitter.com/MVbRBJcx1E — Alabama High School Athletic Association (@AHSAAnow) November 14, 2026 With a first-and-10 and just over 12 seconds remaining, Hillcrest had a few opportunities to score but instead went for the win right away. Hillcrest senior quarterback Jordan Shambley found Brenden Williams over the middle for what looked like a quick first-down strike. Instead, Williams tossed the ball back to Harris, who streaked across the field from the other way and went into the end zone untouched.
