🏈 A Legacy Shared. A Tradition Honored. 🧡🤎
There’s been some conversation lately, and we want to take a moment to recognize something important: the legacies of both Coach John Stafford and Coach Bob Gaddis are proudly and permanently part of Columbus East football.
Coach Stafford laid the foundation, leading the Olympians to a large school state title in 1979 and establishing a tradition of excellence. Coach Gaddis built upon that legacy, guiding East to state championships in 2013 and 2017 and mentoring generations of student-athletes.
That’s why it will always be known as Stafford Field at Bob Gaddis Stadium—a lasting tribute to both men who helped shape the program into what it is today.
This recognition isn’t about choosing one era over another—it’s about honoring them together, with respect and pride.
