This week, Linden High School Head Football Coach, Luther Davis underwent surgery, for reasons the school did not care to comment on at this time, and will likely be out for the next couple of weeks if not the rest of the football season.

Stepping in for coach Davis will be Principal Timothy Thurman who was the Francis Marion High School head coach from 1997 through 2002 before taking the principal position at Linden.

According to Thurman, coach Davis is doing well and on his way to a smooth recovery.
