The Billingsley Bears finished up the 2022 season with a 3-7 overall record. The 2022 season was Head Coach Lanny Jones’ first season with the Bears and he only arrived 2 weeks before the kick off of the season. Now with a whole season and a summer for players to learn his coaching style and schemes, Jones is excited to see how the team has grown from year one to year two.
“We competed. We would be the only team 1A through 3A at all these things, so it would be us versus all these big 6 and 7A schools. I told them I could care less about the score, I want us to compete and get better. At the end of the day there’s no better way to condition for football than to do football stuff. There’s a lot of advantages to that and it pays off for us,” says Jones.
“Most definitely want to see us accomplish playoffs. To get there we’ve just got to put in work because there’s no doubt in my mind that we can get there, we’ve just got to do it,” says Gilmore.Jefferson Davis Last season in 2022, J.A.G. recorded a 3-7 record. Bell is looking for his team to continue to improve this season and bring a lot of grit and toughness to the field.
