Rush Propst is the former coach of powerhouse Hoover High School in Alabama that gained notoriety on the MTV show Two-A-Days. In 2004, Jeremy Pruitt got his first break in the coaching business when Propst hired him as an assistant. Propst has now been hired as USA Academy’s head coach.
USA Academy hired Rush Propst as head coach on Jan. 2. The former Hoover and Colquitt County High School head coach has since hired Jeff Kent as defensive coordinator and Kenyatta Watson as Director of Football Operations.
