The first 20 seconds in the video from this article has a Michigan high school football powerhouse team saying the Nebraska prayer.  A very nice surprise to see in my local paper in a land of Wolverines and Spartans.

Love it!  Wow!  That's quite an accomplishment for a high school to have a coach for so long!  Well done!

Yeah, Coach Herrington and his staff are awesome.  48 years at Harrison high school, ever since the school first opened in 1970.  Unfortunately the school is closing after next year so he only gets to coach one more season and then will retire.

Oh that's sad.  I hate to hear high schools closing.

What is the reason for the closure?

Farmington Hills has 3 high schools and with decreased enrollment and budget issues in the district, and since Harrison high school is in the middle of the city (as opposed to the 2 opposite end schools), Harrison was chosen as the school to close.  It's really a shame.
