There are a handful of SEC players that have come through his program at Summerville High School in Summerville, SC. AJ Green at UGA is probably the last well known guy who came up under him. Some of you guys will remember Perry Cuda. He was from Summerville as well. Kevin Long at FSU, and a few of you may remember Jamar Nesbit from UofSC.

McKissick led the Summerville football team for nearly six decades, taking over the Green Wave program in 1952 and working the sidelines through a dozen presidential administrations – from Harry Truman to Barack Obama – until he retired in 2014.

McKissick compiled a record of 621-155-13 in 62 seasons with the Green Wave, the most wins of any coach at any level, and captured 10 state championships, his last coming in 1998.
