Yes, he has been a HC. I told myself I was going to stay out of this but since ford brought it up, and some of the comments on other threads by others as well as those here I feel compelled.
Apologies to the Rigdon's (whom I've never met) and Coach Lee if you frown on what I have to say. In these days of the world wide web if you look around info is available, much false and/or misleading (even on here, believe it or not!).
From a couple of short articles I found Coach Rigdon was HC at Samnorwood, named Coach of the year with a 4-5 record, by his peers in 2009. With a 5-1 record in 2010 after 6 games the school board met on a Tuesday night until 2:00 AM and decided to buy out his contract. They forfeited there last 4 games. According to Old Bearkat the team quit afterwards in protest and support of their coach per his post on Lone Star Football. They haven't played the game since. Maybe he stepped on someone's toe's or they just didn't like football.
I don't know the details and I don't care.
He does have HC experience, in a smaller arena. His kids were a little young to be involved in influencing anything. It's in the past.
