Coach Carley had a great and lasting impact on each athlete that had the privilege of working under his guidance. He taught each of us that we could do more than we thought we could. He could motivate us all with only a look, no need for anything more. As a group we accomplished some remarkable things and made lifetime memories that will never fade. It was great to see him at his Hall of Fame Induction in Mobile, he certainly deserved it. There will never be another like him!!! Our thoughts and prayers are with Yvonne, Freddy and Candy
