Yes! For whatever reason I like watching any/all Coach Thompson interviews.  An all time classic from him "you can't win the Kentucky Derby with a mule".  ( that may not be a word for word quote) but talk about LMAO!!

He say he been in the game 50+ years.  This guy knows a thing or two about what he talking about...

Let me just put it this way, his coaching in Orange....and I read somewhere recently that while he is a West Orange High grad, he coached at other places before coaching in Orange.....predates West Orange-Stark by about 3 years.

West Orange-Stark opened in 1977.

If you have ever seen "Dazed and Confused". I imagine he was one of the coaches wearing the tight short shorts and knee high socks. Thats definitely how I remember him in the 80s we first met. And he still drives the same classic blue Chevy truck.
