Applications will be taken for five working daysHead football coaching positions are being filled quickly, and Sunday saw a lot of activity. • Ryan Silverfield is moving from Memphis to become the new head coach at Arkansas. • Alex Golesh is leaving South Florida for Auburn. • Jon Sumrall is leaving Tulane for Florida. • Lane Kiffin is leaving Ole Miss to take over as the new head coach at LSU. Arkansas, LSU, Tulane, and Auburn each have a new head football coach now. But Abbeville High School still needs to hire a new head football coach. What happens next for Abbeville High? According to Vermilion Parish School Assistant Superintendent Marc Turner, Abbeville High will start looking for a new head football coach this week. The school will post the job opening on Monday and keep it open for at least a week. After the application period ends, interviews will be held in early December. The school could name a new football coach by the end of December. Jonathan Zenon was hired two years ago to replace Roderick Moy, who left to become the head coach at North Vermilion High School. Zenon’s first year ended with a 0-10 record, and this year he is 0-4. He went on leave after losing his fourth game in 2025 and never returned to Abbeville High. Athletic director and head basketball coach Trevor Eaton stepped in as interim head football coach for the last six games. The Wildcats won three of those games and made the Division II playoffs as the No. 28 seed. With their first win in 2025, it ended a 14-game losing streak. Despite Eaton’s success, Eaton is not expected to apply for the head football coach job. However, AHS offensive coordinator Donald Fuselier is expected to apply for the position. Fuselier led an offense at AHS that hasn’t been seen since Brent Indest coached in the early 2000s. Abbeville quarterback Dazavien Maze passed for 2, 000 yards, marking only the second time in school history. He also helped produce the school’s first 1, 000-yard receiver, Cameron Samuels. “I can bring stability to the Abbeville football program,” Fuselier said about why he plans to apply for the job.
