Rush Propst denies interest in Plainview football coaching position

Rush Propst has confirmed he will not be taking the head coaching position at Plainview High School, countering recent speculation. Both Propst and assistant coach Jeremy Pruitt clarified to The Gadsden Times that the reports circulating about his hiring were false. Propst, who led Coosa Christian to an AHSAA Class 2A state title last season, stated he is stepping away from coaching this year to focus on mentoring and media projects. Speculation concerning his possible move to Plainview intensified due to player transfers and his previous connections to Pruitt. Propst intends to dedicate time to quarterback training and consulting with high school programs while launching a podcast.
