Jacksonville Westside head football coach Randy Randall Jr. is not hiding the fact that his Wolverines were 0-10, outscored 399-71 and were shutout four times in 2023.
Instead of dwelling on what went on last season is to make sure that things start to turn around during the off-season – and they have.
The rising seniors (2025) understand that if things are to get better, it will be up to them to help lay that winning foundation.
While completely turning things around in a year is not realistic, changing the attitudes and culture can be done, and this program is already seeing some results.
That rising senior group has worked hard – and here are a few of them who have stepped up to do their part:
Salahdeen Ashe (WR/DB, 5-11, 240 – 3.1 GPA).
Andino Frontanez (WR/DB/RB, 5-10, 157).
