Grays’ appointment was officially approved by the Attala County Schools Board of Education during its meeting Thursday night.
Grays brings a wealth of experience to McAdams, having most recently served as the secondary coach at Hinds Community College.
Prior to that, he was an assistant coach at East Mississippi Community College, where he helped lead the Lions to an undefeated regular season and a berth in the Mississippi Association of Community Colleges Conference (MACCC) playoffs.
During his time at EMCC, the Lions defense ranked first in the conference.
He also spent three seasons coaching at Mississippi Delta Community College.
