Parker Bruce has been named the head football coach at Nickerson
At 25, Bruce is an Andale High alum (2014-2018), Butler CC alum (2018-2020), and KSU alum (2020-2022). He played football at all three schools and is currently the head basketball and track coach at Nickerson.
NEW: Football coach Jim Harbaugh makes a surprise appearance at the 'March for Life' rally in Washington, D.C.
Fun fact about Jim Harbaugh:
Harbaugh once told his Michigan players & staff that if any of them were ever dealing with an unplanned pregnancy, he and his wife would take the baby.
"I've told [them] the same thing I tell my kids, boys, the girls, same thing I tell our players, our staff members," Harbaugh said to ESPN.
"I encourage them if they have a pregnancy that wasn't planned, to go through with it, go through with it."
"Let that unborn child be born, and if at that time, you don't feel like you can care for it, you don't have the means or the wherewithal, then Sarah and I will take that baby."
