TUSCALOOSA, Alabama - Jarell Thomas was listening when Stillman College football coach Teddy Keaton talked to his seniors about leaving a legacy. Keaton, a Stillman graduate, is in his first season as head coach. Thomas wants to go out as a winner.
“I approached this season with a goal in mind,” said Thomas, an outside linebacker from Dothan. “The goal was to accomplish something that we haven’t accomplished in a while, and that’s to win over five games. During the summer workouts and all that, I just strived for the best.”
