Lamar landed his first head coaching job with the Hornets last season. The hornets went 7-5 and advanced to the second round of the state playoffs.

Which was a slightly better record than the previous season in 2020. Now the administration looks to quickly fill that coaching vacancy before the season starts.

The Pelham City School Board voted 7-0 last April to hire Lamar Landing as the new head football coach. Nine months later, he’s out as head coach.
