As we introduce the 4th and final inductee for the 2018-19 Crescent/New Deal Athletic Hall of Fame Class, we recognize and honor Coach John Franks. From 1987-1990, Coach Franks’ football teams went 34-13 and fell just shy of the state championship game in 1990. Coach John Franks passed away in 2001.
Coach John Franks (Football Coach, AD - 1987-1991):
In his time as Head Football Coach at Crescent, Coach John Franks’ teams experienced much success. He has the highest winning percentage of any football coach in Crescent history. Under his leadership, Crescent won the Skyline Conference Championship in 1990 and was runner-up in 1989. While he was coach, Crescent won at least ten games in a season twice, in both 1989 and 1990, and his 1990 team has the most wins of any Crescent football team with 12 victories. Coach Franks was the Skyline Conference and Anderson Touchdown Club Coach of the Year in 1990, and his 1990 team fell just short of the State Championship game, losing in a very close contest at Crescent. Coach Franks suffered a debilitating stroke that tragically cut short his coaching career. Coach John Franks passed away in 2001.
