Karl Johnson, the longest-tenured head football coach in the OCC, has stepped down after leading Dublin Scioto for 23 seasons.
He informed his team Dec. 5, before the athletics department made the announcement on its Twitter account.
“It was a really hard decision,” Johnson said. “For me and my family and where things are with me, I’m in good health and my wife and I have things we want to do. I’ve loved being the head coach at Dublin Scioto, but it just felt like the time was now. I love coaching the kids. I still love coaching. I still love football. I love Scioto, but it was just time.”
Johnson, 57, went 146-104 with 14 winning seasons and 12 postseason appearances. He underwent open-heart surgery in January 2020, but did not miss any time during the 2020 season. “How fortunate a school is to have the same head football coach for 23 seasons,” athletics director Nick Magistrale said. “He set the bar in regards to leadership and overseeing a successful high school football program. His character is unbelievable. Anyone who knows Karl Johnson knows that he’s a man of character and that’s what makes you a great leader of young men because you have such solid character.
