Athens football coach Paul Essary to be featured on ‘Project Afterlife’

Athens High school football coach Paul Essary died in 2009.

I know you’ve watched him lead the Hornets to great seasons and the playoffs, and a perfect 10-0 season, since that time — but trust me, he died in 2009.

He’ll told me himself, and now he’s told the digital cable and satellite television station Destination America the story on their new show, “Project Afterlife.”

Coach Essary’s story will be one of two told 9 p.m. this Sunday, Aug. 16, on Destination America.

Please watch the video above for a preview of the show which features Coach Essary.
