Please welcome Bryce Smiley as the new Head Coach of the JL Mann Patriots!

Under Coach Smiley’s leadership, the J.L. Mann Football Program will work to develop a WE - Without Equal - mentality.

● At J.L. Mann, WE is the standard – on the field, in the classroom, and in the community.
● WE is outworking, out-hustling, and out-competing any team who comes against us.
● WE is treating our fellow Patriots with the utmost respect and meeting all eligibility requirements.
● WE is being involved in and dedicated to our community.

In cultivating a Without Equal mentality....
WE will develop men of DEPTH, who are characterized by their
Discipline, Effort, Purpose, Toughness, and Heart.

WE invite you to buy in to the new standard at J.L. Mann.

As always our number 1 goal is to provide enough food for our boys to accomplish their athletic and academic goals. It's just a fact that our boys don't get what's required for their bodies and brains to perform at peak levels. So as a broader family we are stepping in to fill the gap. Last year we provided meal replacement throughout the summer and for a portion of the school year. This is our biggest initiative!!

In addition to this we have major work to do to continue to make our program the tip of the spear in Greenville County. Here is a list of items we are looking to help with this year to come along side the school in making sure that our players and coaches are loved and cared for!
