The winningest football coach in Copiah-Lincoln history is calling it a career as the school announced on Tuesday that longtime head coach Glenn Davis will be retiring later this month after 21 seasons at the head of the Wolf Pack.

“While we reflect on Coach Davis’s time with us, we not only celebrate the success he achieved on the field, but also the integrity and dedication he brought to our entire program,” said CLCC President Dr. Dewayne Middleton in a release by the school. “His legacy will be remembered not just in victories, but in the countless lives he touched, the character he shaped, and the standards of excellence he set for his players. We are deeply grateful for his years of service, and we wish him all the best in this well-earned next chapter.”

Davis saw his final team finish 5-4 in 2024 as he ends his career with a 114-81 combined record. Some of the high points of his time in Wesson were the 2012 state championship and bowl game wins in 2006 and 2023. Four times in his tenure the Wolves finished as runners-up in the state title game.

His position is the fifth MACCC head coaching position to come open this year, joining jobs at Hinds, Southwest Mississippi, Jones College, and Coahoma CC.

Davis was the dean of MACCC head coaches, having been in his position longer than anyone else in the league.

Earlier in his career, Davis spent time as an assistant coach at Co-Lin, Holmes CC, and Mississippi State, where he was part of some of the most successful teams in Bulldog history as the running backs coach for Jackie Sherrill.

“Coach Davis’s tenure is one to be highly commended and his impact on young lives is immeasurable,” said CLCC Athletic Director Bryan Nobile in the school’s release. “He played a key role in the life of our football program for many years and was committed to his players’ success. The consistency of our team’s year in and year out have always made us one of the most competitive teams in the state.”
