Coaching career

[edit]

Skanes served as the first head football coach for the Concordia Hornets located in Selma, Alabama (sometimes called "Concordia–Alabama") and held that position from when the program began in 2005 through the third game of their 2012 season.[2] His coaching record at Concordia was 33 wins and 40 losses.[3] As coach, Skanes gained respect of other regional coaches for his ability to work and build a program with comparatively less resources than his peers.[4]
