Coach Callaway said, “First, I have to say, I am extremely humbled to have this opportunity. Robert Toombs is a great place to be, and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here so far as a teacher, coach, and part of the family. To be offered this position is a great blessing that comes with great responsibility. I am looking forward to continuing to work with the Robert Toombs family and Crusader Nation to give our students an opportunity to be competitive in athletics all year long.”

God answered a prayer three years ago making it possible for my family to be part of the RTCA family and community. I am looking forward to the ability to continue building upon what we started three years ago within the football program, and leading current, as well as future Crusaders. I would like to thank our Head of School, Mr. Travis Absher, for trusting me in this role and allowing me this opportunity. I look forward to what the future brings this group of young men, this football team, and this school family,” stated Coach Meeks.
