East Central High School head football coach Marcus High turned in his letter of resignation today, athletic director Gary Long said today.

High's team went 3-8 this year, his fifth at the school.

“We got his resignation today and it was kind of a mutual agreement,” Long said.

High's resignation won't be official until the next school board meeting.

“Coach High has been an asset to our school and he's a great guy,” Long said. “It's just a situation where you have to move forward.”
