Coach Tucker Brown has been hired by Trussville City Schools to serve as a teacher at HTHS and the Varsity Football Tight Ends Coach.
Coach Brown is a former Husky who went on to play at Auburn University. During his time with the Tigers, he played tight end and every position on the offensive line while helping Auburn win the 2017 SEC West and reach the SEC Championship Game. He was also a nominee for the Burlsworth Trophy.
Coach Brown brings valuable coaching experience from his time at the University of Central Florida, Opelika High School, and Baker High School.
Head Coach Josh Floyd stated, "We want to welcome Tucker Brown as our new Tight Ends Coach. We are excited to have Tucker, Mackenzie, and their family be a part of the Hewitt-Trussville football family. Coach Brown brings valuable experience from his playing days at Auburn University, where he started out as a walk-on before earning a scholarship and playing an integral role in Auburn winning the 2017 SEC West championship. In 2020, he coached the defensive line here at HTHS before moving on to coach at the Division I level at UCF and other successful high school programs. He will be a great asset to our staff, and we are thrilled to have him back in Trussville."
Brown graduated from Auburn University in 2019 with a bachelor's degree in finance and a degree in Supply Chain Management. Tucker and his wife, Mackenzie, who was also hired at HTHS, have a son named Hank.
We are excited to welcome Coach Brown back home and look forward to the impact he will have on our program.
