When asked about coming to Center ISD, he stated, “I am beyond excited to continue to build something great in Center. We met Center in the area round a few years ago. It was one of the most physical and hard-nosed football games I have ever been a part of. Four overtimes and both teams left it all on the field. I texted my wife on the bus ride home and told her that if that job ever opens, I am going for it. I truly believe that Center is a special place and my family and I cannot wait to get plugged into the Roughrider community”.
When Dr. Morris was asked about this new addition to Roughrider Nation, he stated the following, “I truly believe that Coach Brown and his family will have a positive impact on our students, schools and community. I am excited to see what he does. He is approachable, genuinely cares about others and is willing to go above and beyond for our students. I know he will be successful with the tremendous support that our community, boosters and school will give to him and the total athletic program”.
Roughrider Nation, please join us in welcoming Coach Nick Brown, his wife Amber and their family to the Center Independent School District.
