Houston County - Tanner Harris leaves Houston County after just two seasons following a 1-9 season in 2025. The Lions won the first game of the season before losing the next nine.

They have not won a playoff game since the 2004 football season. 2026 Season - BJ Chitty was a Northview High football standout who had a strong career on the Troy football team.
