DURHAM , North Carolina — Southern High School football coach Adrian Jones, fresh off winning the school’s first state football championship, has resigned to accept a position as running backs coach at his alma mater, N.C. Central University.
Jones informed Southern’s staff, administration and players of his decision on Wednesday morning, but declined to comment on his future plans in an interview Wednesday night. He said he preferred to await an announcement by N.C. Central on that issue. NCCU reportedly will not announce any new staff additions until new coach Jerry Mack has completed the staff.
Upon learning of Jones’ decision, Southern principal Kenneth Barnes named Southern defensive coordinator and athletic director Darius Robinson to replace Jones as head coach Wednesday.
